Add Socket Dir Management

[nabbar]

Hello,

In some case, the /tmp is mount as noexec. The socket can have some trouble to work correctly. So, I have add a little addition to offert the socket location capability.

Indeed, I have extend the auth-method to having different auth method between socket connection and remote connection.

Add Socket Dir Management :

• add an option flags to specify the socket dir. Default value is the common.PgUnixSocketDirectories. If not specify or cannot access, use the default value;
• add option for defined the socket authmethod for SU/Repl to allow differt access in socket and in remote;

Regards,

Nicolas.

@nabbar Thanks for the PR! I'll prefer to split the PR in two. One for setting the socket dir (this one) and a new PR for setting different auth methods for the socket since it takes more time for review the changes and will need some tests.
