parse_row_description and parse_consolidated_data_row read a field_count
from the message body and use that to iterate a slice, without checking
whether the count actually fits the body.
A backend-controlled attack could lead to fewer fields logged, or
stalling of the parser to-client direction for the duration of the flow.
A malformed_response event is set for pgsql, if either of those
message's inner parsers has a field_count that can't be reconciled with
the body slice.
A new pgsql.response log field is added to indicate this, too:
pgsql.response.row_description_malformed, a boolean. This wasn't added
to the consolidated data row message, per its summarization nature.
The row_description unit test buffer declared a length one byte longer
than its three fields occupy. The old code silently discarded that
surplus byte; the new one reports it, so the buffer was corrected.

CopyIn and CopyOut message parsers read the length field, but did not
use that information to parse the rest of the message, instead, parsing
as many columns as indicated in the columns field, without ever
checking against the informed length. This opened the door for
attackers to fabricate messages that were never sent by the server,
as well as to obfuscate following valid backend messages, in case the
columns value was bigger than the actual message (up to ~128KiB).
Those parsers also had a message length parsing check off-by-one, fixed
in this patch.
When a malformed CopyIn or CopyOut response is seen, it is logged as
previously, with a new field added to indicate whether it is malformed
or not.
Ticket: #8863
There shouldn't be duplicated messages in the requests Vec. And thus
the parser shouldn't log duplicated keys nor messages. Add debug
validations to ensure this.
With PGSQL's current state machine, most frontend/ client messages will
lead to the creation of a new transaction - which would prevent
duplicated messages being pushed to the requests array and reaching the
logger.
The current exceptions for that are:
- CopyDataIn
- CopyDone
- CopyFail
Thus, debug statements were added for those cases.
CopyDone and CopyFail, per the documentation, shouldn't be seen
duplicated on the wire for the same transaction. CopyDataIn -- yes, but
we consolidate those, so the expectation is that they won't be
duplicated in the requests array or when reaching the logger either.

We used `copy_column_count`, while just `columns` is more accurate with
what PostgreSQL describes, and what Wireshark shows.

Task #7645
This sub-protocol inspects messages sent mainly from the frontend to
the backend after a 'COPY FROM STDIN' has been processed by the
backend.
Parses new messages:
- CopyInResponse -- initiates copy-in mode/sub-protocol
- CopyData (In) -- data transfer message, from frontend to backend
- CopyDone -- signals that no more CopyData messages will be seen from
the frontend, for the current transaction
- CopyFail -- used by the frontend to signal some failure to proceed
with sending CopyData messages
Task #7645
Important for CopyIn mode/ subprotocol, where the frontend is the one
sending 0 or more messages to the backend as part of a transaction.

If a password message was seen while logging passwords was disabled
for pgsql, this would lead to an empty request being logged.
Instead of simply not logging anything when there is a password message
and this is disabled, however, log instead that said password is
redacted.
Bug #7647
This sub-protocol inspects messages exchanged between postgresql backend
and frontend after a 'COPY TO STDOUT' has been processed.
Parses new messages:
- CopyOutResponse -- initiates copy-out mode/sub-protocol
- CopyData -- data transfer messages
- CopyDone -- signals that no more CopyData messages will be seen from
the sender for the current transaction
Task #4854
This may happen in some situations if the app-layer parser only sees
unknown messages and sets an event: there will be an empty transaction,
but nothing to log.

Task #5566
Allow `set_uint` to accept any number value that can be converted to a
u64. Prevents callers from having to do `as u64`.
This required fixing up any callers that used `.into()` to just pass in
their value without the into conversion.
Most calls using `as u64` can have that cast removed, with the exception
of `usize` values which must still be cast is conversion can't be
guaranteed to be non-fallible.
Before, the JsonBuilder object for the pgsql event was being created
from the C-side function that actually called the Rust logger.
This resulted that if another module - such as the Json Alert called the
PGSQL logger, we wouldn't have the `pgsql` key present in the log output
- only its inner fields.
Bug #6983
A CanceldRequest can occur after any query request, and is sent over a
new connection, leading to a new flow. It won't take any reply, but, if
processed by the backend, will lead to an ErrorResponse.
Task #6577
We had unkonwn message type for the backend, but not the frontend
messages. It's important to better identify those to improve pgsql
probing functions.

Use try_reserve before growing the internal buffer, and the internal
state vector. This allows allocation errors to be caught and an error
returned instead of just aborting the process.
Ticket: #6057
Fuzzers found a possible integer overflow bug when parsing response
messages. To fix that, removed the case where we incremented the parsed
field length and created a new message type for situations where Suri
parsers an Unknown message. This is good because there may happen that
an unknown message to Suri is valid, and in this case, we would still be
able to log it.
Philippe Antoine found the bug while fuzzing with rust debug assertions.
Bug #5016
Pgsql was using bitwise operations to assign password output config to
its context flags, but mixing that with logic negation of the default
value, resulting in the expressions having a constant value as result.
Bug: #5007
- add nom parsers for decoding most messages from StartupPhase and
SimpleQuery subprotocols
- add unittests
- tests/fuzz: add pgsql to confyaml
