Sort out paired double quotes in \connect, \password and \crosstabview.
Noah Misch <noah@leadboat.com>
Sort out paired double quotes in \connect, \password and \crosstabview. In arguments, these meta-commands wrongly treated each pair as closing the double quoted string. Make the behavior match the documentation. This is a compatibility break, but I more expect to find software with untested reliance on the documented behavior than software reliant on today's behavior. Back-patch to 9.1 (all supported versions). Reviewed by Tom Lane and Peter Eisentraut. Security: CVE-2016-5424
