This commit applies timingsafe_bcmp() to authentication paths that handle attributes or data previously compared with memcpy() or strcmp(), which are sensitive to timing attacks. The following data is concerned by this change, some being in the backend and some in the frontend: - For a SCRAM or MD5 password, the computed key or the MD5 hash compared with a password during a plain authentication. - For a SCRAM exchange, the stored key, the client's final nonce and the server nonce. - RADIUS (up to v18), the encrypted password. - For MD5 authentication, the MD5(MD5()) hash.
