The default value for a client connection is whatever the parameter
"client_encoding" was set to in the PostgreSQL server configuration.

But that value can be overridden in several ways:

- explicitly by setting "client_encoding" in the connect string

- with the SQL statement SET by the client

- if the client has "client_encoding=auto", by the encoding set in
  the client's environment

- by setting the PGCLIENTENCODING environment variable
