What version are you using, as this has been in the driver for well over a
year?

In V6.2, you enabled password by sufficing the url with ?auth=p

Since V6.3, the backend determines what authentication scheme to use, and
is configured using the pg_hba.conf file.

The following schemes are fully implemented:

    trust, ident, password, crypt
