authentication methods sections

I find that the section authentication methods
<https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/static/auth-methods.html> is
becoming harder to read and navigate, because we keep adding
authentication methods and more information about them, and it's all on
one HTML page.  I propose to move those sections up one level in the
hierarchy so they end up on separate HTML pages.

+1, that definitely seems like a good idea.

Sorry for coming late here, but the patch which has been committed,
56811e57, results in a section which is completely empty:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/static/auth-methods.html

And all the authentication methods get listed here:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/static/client-authentication.html

So I find the result even more confusing than the original.  Wouldn't it
be more simple to just remove "Authentication Methods" if the current
layer is kept?
