#313: pg_hba lens doesn't support complex authentication method options

--------------------+---------------------
 The following two lines in `pg_hba.conf` allow LDAP and GSS authentication
 and contain options for each authentication method:

 {{{
 host all all .dev.example.com gss include_realm=0 krb_realm=EXAMPLE.COM
 map=somemap
 host all all .dev.example.com ldap ldapserver=auth.example.com ldaptls=1
 ldapprefix="uid=" ldapsuffix=",ou=people,dc=example,dc=com"
 }}}

 But at the moment these kinds of options are not supported in the pg_hba
 lens because `option` is stored as a single `Rx.neg1` word which doesn't
 allow spaces or commas, and `option` itself seems limited to zero or one
 occurrences.

 From http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/auth-pg-hba-conf.html:

   After the auth-method field, there can be field(s) of the form
 name=value that specify options for the authentication method. Details
 about which options are available for which authentication methods appear
 below.
