This commit adds some finer grained detail to handling the postmaster's
response to SSL negotiation packets, by accounting for the possibility
of an 'E' byte being sent back, and emitting an appropriate error.
In the naive case, the postmaster will respond with either 'S' (proceed
with an SSL connection) or 'N' (SSL is not supported). However, the
current if statement doesn't account for an 'E' byte being returned
by the postmaster, where an error is encountered (perhaps unable to
fork due to being out of memory).
By adding this case, we can prevent confusing error messages when SSL is
enforced and the postmaster returns an error after successful SSL
connections.
This also brings the connection handling further in line with
libpq, where 'E' is handled similarly as of this commit:

Given that there are no longer pre-7.0 databases out in the wild, I
believe this is a safe change to make, and should not break backwards
compatibility (unless matching on error message content).
* Replace if statement with switch, to catch 'S', 'E' and 'N' bytes
returned by the postmaster
* Return an Error for non 'S' or 'N' cases
* Expand and restructure unit tests for SSL negotiation packets
* Work on converting lib to standard
* Finish updating lib
* Finish linting lib
* Format test files
* Add .eslintrc with standard format
* Supply full path to eslint bin
* Move lint command to package.json
* Add eslint as dev dependency
* Remove unsupported Node versions 0.10 and 0.12 from CI
* Replace deprecated Buffer constructor with .from/.alloc
* Remove Promise polyfill
* Make use of Object.assign
* Remove checks for versions of Node earlier than 4
* Remove Buffer#indexOf fallback for Node 0.10
They were disabled by 4cdd7a116bab03c6096ab1af8f0f522b04993768 without comment; it seems that this might have been unintentional?
In any case, they should probably be enabled, updated, or removed.
