Thread: pgsql: Allow users with BYPASSRLS to alter their own passwords.
Allow users with BYPASSRLS to alter their own passwords. The intention in commit 491c029db was to require superuserness to change the BYPASSRLS property, but the actual effect of the coding in AlterRole() was to require superuserness to change anything at all about a BYPASSRLS role. Other properties of a BYPASSRLS role should be changeable under the same rules as for a normal role, though. Fix that, and also take care of some documentation omissions related to BYPASSRLS and REPLICATION role properties. Tom Lane and Stephen Frost, per bug report from Wolfgang Walther. Back-patch to all supported branches.
