I have applied the following patch to document PQinitSSL() and
PQregisterThreadLock().
I also remove the crypt() mention in the libpq threading section and
added a single sentence in the client-auth manual page under crypt().
Crypt authentication is so old now that a separate paragraph about it
seemed unwise.
I also added a comment about our use of locking around pqGetpwuid().
