+1 for this, and +1 for doing this still in v18.

I have no direct opinion on how the logging should work, but some thoughts:
- It's better to print a warning somewhere, even if you need to use
--retain to see it, than not doing it at all. At least there's a
fighting chance that someone might see it.
- If we're worried about printing a list of users with md5 passwords, we
could just say "there are users with md5 passwords" without naming them.
I'm not too worried though, pg_upgrade has full access to the data anyway.
