password_encryption default

[Peter Eisentraut]

We didn't get anywhere with making the default authentication method in 
a source build anything other than trust.  But perhaps we should change 
the default for password_encryption to nudge people to adopt SCRAM? 
Right now, passwords are still hashed using MD5 by default, unless you 
specify scram-sha-256 using initdb -A or similar.
