Extensive code review for GSSAPI encryption mechanism.

Fix assorted bugs in handling of non-blocking I/O when using GSSAPI
encryption.  The encryption layer could return the wrong status
information to its caller, resulting in effectively dropping some data
(or possibly in aborting a not-broken connection), or in a "livelock"
situation where data remains to be sent but the upper layers think
transmission is done and just go to sleep.  There were multiple small
thinkos contributing to that, as well as one big one (failure to think
through what to do when a send fails after having already transmitted
data).  Note that these errors could cause failures whether the client
application asked for non-blocking I/O or not, since both libpq and
the backend always run things in non-block mode at this level.

Also get rid of use of static variables for GSSAPI inside libpq;
that's entirely not okay given that multiple connections could be
open at once inside a single client process.

Also adjust a bunch of random small discrepancies between the frontend
and backend versions of the send/receive functions -- except for error
handling, they should be identical, and now they are.

Also extend the Kerberos TAP tests to exercise cases where nontrivial
amounts of data need to be pushed through encryption.  Before, those
tests didn't provide any useful coverage at all for the cases of
interest here.  (They still might not, depending on timing, but at
least there's a chance.)

Per complaint from pmc@citylink and subsequent investigation.
Back-patch to v12 where this code was introduced.
