## Problem
- if-conditions for the `check-macos-build` workflow don't trigger it on
PRs with relevant changes (in Rust code or Postgres submodules).
- Jobs in the workflow depend on the presence of a cache, which is not
guaranteed.
## Summary of changes
- Fix if-conditions
- Use artifacts on top of cache whenever the workflow depends on it —
the cache might not be available
## Problem
- using Hetzner buckets for cache requires secrets, we either need
`secrets: inherit` to make it works
- we don't have self-hosted MacOs runners, so actually GH native cache
is more optimal solution there
## Summary of changes
- switch to GH native cache for macos builds
## Problem
Occasionally getting data from GH cache could be slow, with less than
10MB/s and taking 5+ minutes to download cache:
```
Received 20971520 of 2987085791 (0.7%), 9.9 MBs/sec
Received 50331648 of 2987085791 (1.7%), 15.9 MBs/sec
...
Received 1065353216 of 2987085791 (35.7%), 4.8 MBs/sec
Received 1065353216 of 2987085791 (35.7%), 4.7 MBs/sec
...
```
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/actions/runs/13956437454/job/39068664599#step:7:17
Resulting in getting cache even longer that build time.
## Summary of changes
Switch to the caches, that are closer to the runners, and they provided
stable throughput about 70-80MB/s
## Problem
The pipelines after release merges are slower than they need to be at
the moment. This is because some kinds of tests/checks run on all kinds
of pipelines, even though they only matter in some of those.
## Summary of changes
Run `check-codestyle-{rust,python,jsonnet}`, `build-and-test-locally`
and `trigger-e2e-tests` only on regular PRs, not release PR or pushes to
main or release branches.
Successor of #10280 after it was reverted in #10592.
Re-introduce the usage of diesel-async again, but now also add TLS
support so that we connect to the storcon database using TLS. By
default, diesel-async doesn't support TLS, so add some code to make us
explicitly request TLS.

We now don't need libpq any more for the build of the storage
controller, as we use `diesel-async` since #10280. Therefore, we remove
the env var that gave cargo/rustc the location for libpq.
Follow-up of #10280
Closes: https://github.com/neondatabase/cloud/issues/17784
## Problem
Currently, we run the whole CI pipeline for any changes. It's slow and
expensive.
## Suggestion
Starting with MacOs builds:
- check what files were changed
- rebuild only needed parts
- reuse results from previous builds when available
- run builds in parallel when possible
