vacuumdb: don't prompt for passwords over and over
Having the script prompt for passwords over and over was a preexisting
problem when it processed multiple databases or when it processed
multiple analyze stages, but the parallel mode introduced in commit
a179232047 made it worse.
Fix the annoyance by keeping a copy of the password used by the first
connection that requires one. Since users can (currently) only have a
single password, there's no need for more complex arrangements (such as
remembering one password per database).
Per bug #13741 reported by Eric Brown. Patch authored and
cross-reviewed by Haribabu Kommi and Michael Paquier, slightly tweaked
by Álvaro Herrera.

Backpatch to 9.5, where parallel vacuumdb was introduced.
