This allow us to set the password encryption algorithm that the server uses to store the password to support legacy clients to authenticate.

We provide a Redshift rotation lambda, are you not able to use that one instead? |

I don't believe that one works for PostgreSQL. This is for changing the password in PostgreSQL and optionally specifying the encryption method used (eg one that is supported by Redshift). Newer versions of PostgreSQL uses an password encryption method that is not supported by Redshift (or older versions of libpq) so this allow us to keep backwards compatibility. You can connect from Redshift to PostgreSQL with an external schema. |

Description of changes:
This allow you to override the encryption algorithm used by the server when storing the password to support legacy clients like Redshift.
Redshift is not able to connect to PostgreSQL with
scram-sha-256. This message is returned:Possibly Redshift is using an old version of libpq which only support md5. This change fixes the problem for us.
