improvement provide more options when using a dedicated replication_role

[Tiago-Anastacio]

Hello,

postgres release 11.1 (rhel community package)
repmgr release 4.2.0 (rhel community package)

When using a dedicated replication_role
we cannot use a cert authentification method both for this user and repmgr user.

Because repmgr will build primary_conninfo on recovery.conf file based on parameter conn_info from repmgr.conf.
So these two users will share the same client certificate/key and so the same COMMON NAME in the cert.

To provide a cert authentification for both users we would like repmgr to manage these options
sslmode
sslkey
sslcert
sslrootcert

Thank you

I found one workaround: using pg_ident.conf file with cert authentification, I thought pg_ident only worked with peer authentification.
