Limit pg_upgrade authentication advice to always-secure techniques.

~/.pgpass is a sound choice everywhere, and "peer" authentication is
safe on every platform it supports. Cease to recommend "trust"
authentication, the safety of which is deeply configuration-specific.
Back-patch to 9.0, where pg_upgrade was introduced.
