Besides adding docstrings to `patroni.config`, a few side changes
have been applied:
* Reference `config_file` property instead of internal attribute
`_config_file` in method `_load_config_file`;
* Have `_AUTH_ALLOWED_PARAMETERS[:2]` as default value of `params`
argument in method `_get_auth` instead of using
`params or _AUTH_ALLOWED_PARAMETERS[:2]` in the body;
* Use `len(PATRONI_ENV_PREFIX)` instead of a hard-coded `8` when
removing the prefix from environment variable names;
* Fix documentation of `wal_log_hints` setting. The previous docs
mentioned it was a dynamic setting that could be changed. However
it is managed by Patroni, which forces `on` value.

Expanding on the addition of docstrings in code, this adds python module API docs to sphinx documentation.
A developer can preview what this might look like by running this locally:
```
tox -m docs
```
The option `-W` is added to the tox env so that warning messages are considered errors.
Adds doc generation using the above method to the test GitHub workflow to catch documentation problems on PRs.
Some docstrings have been reformatted and fixed to satisfy errors generated with the above setup.
It seems that a common pitfall for new users of Patroni is that the `bootstrap.dcs` section is only used to initialize the configuration in DCS. This moves the comment about this to an info block so it is more visible to the reader.
This PR is an attempt of refactoring the docs about migration to Patroni.
These are a few enhancements that we propose through this PR:
* Docs used to mention the procedure can only be performed in a single-node cluster. We changed that so the procedure considers a cluster composed of primary and standbys;
* Teach how to deal with pre-existing replication slots;
* Explain how to create the user for `pg_rewind`, if user intends to enable `use_pg_rewind`.
References: PAT-143.
The docs of `slots` configuration used to have this mention:
```
my_slot_name: the name of replication slot. If the permanent slot name
matches with the name of the current primary it will not be created.
Everything else is the responsibility of the operator to make sure that
there are no clashes in names between replication slots automatically
created by Patroni for members and permanent replication slots.
```
However that is not true in the sense that Patroni does not check for
clashes between `my_slot_name` and the name of replication slots created
for replicating changes among members. If you specify a slot name that
clashes with the name of a replication slot used by a member, it turns
out Patroni will make the slot permanent in the primary even if the member
key expire from the DCS.
Through this commit we also enhance the docs in terms of explaining that
physical permanent slots are maintained only in the primary, while logical
replication slots are copied from primary to standbys.

1. Take client certificates only from the `ctl` section. Motivation: sometimes there are server-only certificates that can't be used as client certificates. As a result neither Patroni not patronictl work correctly even if `--insecure` option is used.
2. Document that if `restapi.verify_client` is set to `required` then client certificates **must** be provided in the `ctl` section.
3. Add support for `ctl.authentication` and prefer to use it over `restapi.authentication`.
4. Silence annoying InsecureRequestWarning when `patronictl -k` is used, so that behavior becomes is similar to `curl -k`.
To do that we use `pg_stat_get_wal_receiver()` function, which is available since 9.6. For older versions the `patronictl list` output and REST API responses remain as before.
In case if there is no wal receiver process we check if `restore_command` is set and show the state as `in archive recovery`.
Example of `patronictl list` output:
```bash
$ patronictl list
+ Cluster: batman -------------+---------+---------------------+----+-----------+
| Member | Host | Role | State | TL | Lag in MB |
+-------------+----------------+---------+---------------------+----+-----------+
| postgresql0 | 127.0.0.1:5432 | Leader | running | 12 | |
| postgresql1 | 127.0.0.1:5433 | Replica | in archive recovery | 12 | 0 |
+-------------+----------------+---------+---------------------+----+-----------+
$ patronictl list
+ Cluster: batman -------------+---------+-----------+----+-----------+
| Member | Host | Role | State | TL | Lag in MB |
+-------------+----------------+---------+-----------+----+-----------+
| postgresql0 | 127.0.0.1:5432 | Leader | running | 12 | |
| postgresql1 | 127.0.0.1:5433 | Replica | streaming | 12 | 0 |
+-------------+----------------+---------+-----------+----+-----------+
```

Until the last release, contributors' names were fully written on the
first occurence during that release. This meant that if Alexander had
four contributions in the release, we would use Alexander Kukushkin on
the first item in the release, and on all the others just Alexander.
This could, in some cases, create some confusion. For example, if there
are more than one contributor with the same first name that has more
than one contribution each.
For this reason, in release 3.0.3, we used the full names of contributors
on all the items from the release.
This patch is to amend the old release notes and have each entry with the
full name of the contributor.
Also fix typo with 2 spaces between first name and last name in one bug fix

When using a custom Postgres distribution it may be the case that the Postgres binaries are compiled with different names other than the ones used by the community Postgres distribution.
With that in mind we implemented a new set of settings for Patroni, so the user is able to override the default binary names with custom binary names through the new section postgresql.bin_name in the local configuration.

- fix --validate-config not to error out if bin_dir is an empty string in the yaml config
- mention bin_dir optionality in the docs
- validate bin_dir even if it is not in the yaml config (add optional
default value for Optional config params in validator)
- make rewind user optional
- Don't return 200 for quorum nodes in GET `/sync` endpoint
- Dew `GET /quorum` endpoint, returns 200 for quorum nodes
- Show Quorum Standby role for quorum nodes in `patronictl list`
* Further nested lists rendering fixes
* Remove a couple of sphinx warnings
* Fix bootstrap.users.password description
* Boto->boto3 in README's
* Split configuration docs and move some lines across files
* Fix a typo
The two cases we have in mind are:
* In spite of following all best practices client-side, logical replication connections can sometimes hang the Postgres shutdown sequence. We'd like to sigterm any misbehaving logical replication connections which remain after x seconds. These will inevitably get killed anyway on master stop timeout.
* remove "role=master" label on current primary when not using k8s as DCS. Waiting until after Postgres fully stops can sometimes be too long for this.
* Pause pgbouncer connections before switchover
Close#2596
Sets request queue size for TCP socket used by Patroni REST API. Once the queue is full, further requests get a "Connection denied" error. The default value is 5.
Configuration parameter is `kubernetes.retriable_http_codes` or `PATRONI_KUBERNETES_RETRIABLE_HTTP_CODES` environment variable.
These status codes are added to the default list of 500, 503, 504.
