Allow matching the DN of a client certificate for authentication
Currently we only recognize the Common Name (CN) of a certificate'ssubject to be matched against the user name. Thus certificates withsubjects '/OU=eng/CN=fred' and '/OU=sales/CN=fred' will have the sameconnection rights. This patch provides an option to match the wholeDistinguished Name (DN) instead of just the CN. On any hba line usingclient certificate identity, there is an option 'clientname' which canhave values of 'DN' or 'CN'. The default is 'CN', the current procedure.The DN is matched against the RFC2253 formatted DN, which looks like'CN=fred,OU=eng'.This facility of probably best used in conjunction with an ident map.Discussion:https://postgr.es/m/92e70110-9273-d93c-5913-0bccb6562740@dunslane.netReviewed-By: Michael Paquier, Daniel Gustafsson, Jacob Champion
