`sslmode=prefere` surface misleading "no encryption" error when using a wrong password

Start by reproducing the failure against a PostgreSQL server requiring SSL with an incorrect password, then inspect _connect_addr/__connect_addr and the retry handling in connect_utils.py. Done means the first authentication failure is preserved or the retry no longer replaces it with the misleading "no encryption" error.

Summary

When connecting with the default sslmode=prefere to a PostreSQL server that requires SSL (e.g. Amazon RDS with their default force_ssl=1), asyncpg reports:

asyncpg.exceptions.InvalidAuthorizationSpecificationError:
  no pg_hba.conf entry for host "...", user "...", database "...", no encryption

The "no encryption" message points at an SSL/pg_hba.conf problem, when the actual issue is simply wrong credentials. This can send users on a lengthy debugging detour (so I heard).

Steps to reproduce

1. Set up a PostgreSQL instance that requires SSL (e.g. Amazon RDS with rds.force_ssl=1).
2. Attempt to connect with sslmode=prefer (or rely on the default) using an incorrect password.

Expected: An error indicating password authentication failed (or at least something that points toward credentials). Actual: no pg_hba.conf entry ... no encryption

Analysis

(Disclaimer: First glance at the asyncpg code and no Python dev)
I believe what's happening is the following
The retry logic in _connect_addr / __connect_addr (connect_utils.py) does the following for sslmode=prefer:

1. First attempt — connects with SSL. The TLS handshake succeeds, but authentication fails, raising InvalidAuthorizationSpecificationError. The exact server message from this first attempt is never surfaced to the user.
2. The exception handler at the except InvalidAuthorizationSpecificationError block checks retry and params.sslmode == SSLMode.prefer and pr.is_ssl — all True — and raises _RetryConnectSignal.
3. Second attempt — connects without SSL. The server, which requires SSL, rejects the plaintext connection with the pg_hba.conf / "no encryption" error. This is the only error the user sees.

Is there a way to safely distinguish between both cases and do not attempt to retry when the first attempt fails because of a wrong password? Or otherwise: Can we preserve the error message and raise both?
