Add support for Kerberos credential delegation
Support GSSAPI/Kerberos credentials being delegated to the server by a client. With this, a user authenticating to PostgreSQL using Kerberos (GSSAPI) credentials can choose to delegate their credentials to the PostgreSQL server (which can choose to accept them, or not), allowing the server to then use those delegated credentials to connect to another service, such as with postgres_fdw or dblink or theoretically any other service which is able to be authenticated using Kerberos. Both postgres_fdw and dblink are changed to allow non-superuser password-less connections but only when GSSAPI credentials have been delegated to the server by the client and GSSAPI is used to authenticate to the remote system.
