Hi,

I create a first libpq trace log patch.

In this patch, 
- All message that PQtrace() gets are output to the libpq trace log file
  (I maybe select more effective message in the future patch)
- Trace log output style is changed slightly from previously proposed

This patch not include documentation,
but you can see parameter detail and how to use it by looking at my previous e-mail.
 
 If get the trace log, set PGLOGDIR/logdir and PGLOGSIZE/logsize.
 These parameters are set in the environment variable or the connection service
 file.
 - logdir or PGLOGDIR : directory where log file written
 - logsize or PGLOGSIZE : maximum log size(M). When the log file size exceeds to
 PGLOGSIZE, the log is output to another file.
 
 The log file name is determined as follow.
 libpq-%ProcessID-%Y-%m-%d_%H%M%S.log
 
Trace log example;
Start :  2018/10/30 08:02:24.433					... time(a)
Query: SELECT pg_catalog.set_config('search_path', '', false)
