Done in attached v2.  I did the split in a separate commit, as the diff is
otherwise unreadable.  While at it I also fixed a few minor issues (I missed a
MemoryContextDelete, and now avoid relying on inet_net_pton which apparently
doesn't exist in cygwin).

Commits

  1. Add TAP tests for include directives in HBA end ident files

  2. Introduce variables for initial and max nesting depth on configuration files

  3. Add support for file inclusions in HBA and ident configuration files

  4. Add missing initialization in tokenize_expand_file() for output list

  5. Rework memory contexts in charge of HBA/ident tokenization

  6. Add error context callback when tokenizing authentication files

  7. Invent open_auth_file() in hba.c to refactor authentication file opening

  8. Use AbsoluteConfigLocation() when building an included path in hba.c

  9. Move code related to configuration files in directories to new file

  10. doc: Fix some descriptions related to pg_ident_file_mappings

  11. Add rule_number to pg_hba_file_rules and map_number to pg_ident_file_mappings

  12. Refactor code handling the names of files loaded in hba.c

  13. Make consistent a couple of log messages when parsing HBA files

  14. Use hba_file/ident_file GUCs rather than pg_hba.conf/pg_ident.conf in logs

  15. Fix path reference when parsing pg_ident.conf for pg_ident_file_mappings

  16. Add system view pg_ident_file_mappings

  17. Modify query on pg_hba_file_rules to check for errors in regression tests

  18. Refactor code related to pg_hba_file_rules() into new file
