This misses the change of default value, and is a bit unclear:

> Remove password_encryption's support for boolean values, e.g. true (Peter Eisentraut)
>
> Previous boolean values enabled md5.  Now, only the md5 string does this.

I'd suggest something along these lines:

> The default for password_encryption is now "scram-sha-256" (Peter Eisentraut)
>
> The pseudo-boolean values "true", "on", "yes" and "1" are no longer accepted as an alias for "md5".

(It hasn't been a true boolean setting since Pg 9.6).
