libpq: Remove deprecated connection parameters authtype and tty
The authtype parameter was deprecated and made inactive in commit d5bbe2aca55bc8, but the environment variable was left defined and thus tested with a getenv call even though the value is of no use. Also, if it would exist it would be copied but never freed as the cleanup code had been removed. tty was deprecated in commit cb7fb3ca958ec8bd5a14e7 but most of the infrastructure around it remained in place.
