[PATCH] allow specifying allowed user in 'trust' hba entries

Hi all,

While we run an ident-less site, we'd still like to specify as what
account a user might connect from a trusted host.

Currently, if you allow connections from host X to database Y, people on
host X are still allowed to connect as a database administrator, which I
think is not very pretty (even though it's the 'trust' mode of
authentication).

This patches uses the auth_arg for specifying the allowed user name.
Basically, it will allow you to specify you an 'allowed user' after a hba
entry. I've found it pretty useful.

Please CC me on replies, as I've not yet found out to subscribe to the
lists here.

greetings,
Lennert
