Code review for connection timeout patch. Avoid unportable assumption

tglsfdc · tglsfdc · commit 2908a838ac2c · 2002-10-24T23:35:55.000Z
that tv_sec is signed; return a useful error message on timeout failure;
honor PGCONNECT_TIMEOUT environment variable in PQsetdbLogin; make code
obey documentation statement that timeout=0 means no timeout.
