This change affects packages that refers to postgres in order to get access to
the client code, libpq, and these packages will now be compiled supporting the
latest version.

This change does not affect NixOS, i.e. people who want to run a PostgreSQL
server. The NixOS module always refers to specific versions of 'postgres', so
if you want to use the latest version there, too, then you'll have to configure
your system appropriately in configuration.nix.

See #69194 for an effort to update the
NixOS module, too.

Fixes #69141.

Motivation for this change
Things done
  • Tested using sandboxing (nix.useSandbox on NixOS, or option sandbox in nix.conf on non-NixOS)
  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nix-review --run "nix-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Determined the impact on package closure size (by running nix path-info -S before and after)
  • Ensured that relevant documentation is up to date
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

Why is our default PostgreSQL version 9.6? Shouldn't it be version 11?
