What do you think about getting rid of the password_from_string state

It is still used in PQconnectionUsedPassword(). That is still needed to
prevent a non-superuser from logging in as the superuser if the server
does not require authentication.
No, the test to see if the server actually *asked* for the password is
the important part at that end.
Oh, I see that now. So yes, as far as I can tell, password_from_string
is not used for anything anymore and should be removed.
