postgresql_escape returned an invalid string if the password end in '$':
postgres=# alter role "postgres" password $$foo$$$;
ERROR: syntax error at or near "$"
LINE 1: alter role "postgres" password $$foo$$$;
This allows non-standard users (pe-postgres) to change passwords. Also
added a function to do escaping of the password, added system tests
and rspec tests for the function.
This patch provides a more advanced way of managing pg_hba rules, by providing a
defined resource to manage a pg_hba file, and a defined resource for managing
rules within such a file (pg_hba_rule).
These new resources are wrappers around ripinaar-concat, and utilise file
assemblies instead of a template to compose the pg_hba.conf file.
I've provided a function that interprets the old ip4|6acl arrays and converts
them to this new format for backwards compatibility as well.
I slightly reformatted our documentation to allow for better documentation of
defined resources in 'Usage' as well, and provided examples of how to use this
new resource.
This hopefully should go a long way to solving the PR's related to lack of full
functionality for pg_hba.conf.

Renamed a few files and made some tweaks to try to get
database_grant, database_user, and database types into
a state where they work very similarly to the ones in
the mysql module. Also introduced a "postgresql_password"
function that can be used to generate an md5 password
hash for a postgres user.
