Follow-up to PR #2433 (b8eb908a). There's still a few more unresolved
locations that have been left as-is for the same compatibility reasons
in the original PR.
Commit 43a4f7173e fixed the case that there are extra options in the
connection string, but broke it in the case when there are not. Fix
that. But on second thoughts, it's more straightforward set the
options with ALTER DATABASE, so change the workflow yaml file to do
that instead.
In commit 6985f6cd6c, I tried passing extra GUCs in the 'options' part
of the connection string, but it didn't work because the pgbench test
overrode it with the statement_timeout. Change it so that it adds the
statement_timeout to any other options, instead of replacing them.

Fixes#1873: previously any run of `make` caused the `postgres-v15-headers`
target to build. It copied a bunch of headers via `install -C`. Unfortunately,
some origins were symlinks in the `./pg_install/build` directory pointing
inside `./vendor/postgres-v15` (e.g. `pg_config_os.h` pointing to `linux.h`).
GNU coreutils' `install` ignores the `-C` key for non-regular files and
always overwrites the destination if the origin is a symlink. That in turn
made Cargo rebuild the `postgres_ffi` crate and all its dependencies because
it thinks that Postgres headers changed, even if they did not. That was slow.
Now we use a custom script that wraps the `install` program. It handles one
specific case and makes sure individual headers are never copied if their
content did not change. Hence, `postgres_ffi` is not rebuilt unless there were
some changes to the C code.
One may still have slow incremental single-threaded builds because Postgres
Makefiles spawn about 2800 sub-makes even if no files have been changed.
A no-op build takes "only" 3-4 seconds on my machine now when run with `-j30`,
and 20 seconds when run with `-j1`.
This commit does two things of note:
1. Bumps the bindgen dependency from `0.59.1` to `0.60.1`. This gets us
an actual error type from bindgen, so we can display what's wrong.
2. Adds `anyhow` as a build dependency, so our error message can be
prettier. It's already used heavily elsewhere in the crates in this
repo, so I figured the fact it's a build dependency doesn't matter
much.
I ran into this from running `cargo <cmd>` without running `make` first.
Here's a comparison of the compiler output in those two cases.

Also get rid if `with_safekeepers` parameter in tests.
Its meaning has changed: `False` meant "no safekeepers" which is not
supported anymore, so we assume it's always `True`.

Previously, we compiled neon separately for Postgres v14 and v15, for
the codestyle checks. But that was bogus; we actually just ran "make
postgres", which always compiled both versions. The version really only
affected the caching.
Fix that, by copying the build steps from the main build_and_test.yml
workflow.
Running "make" at the top level calls "make install" to install the
PostgreSQL headers into the pg_install/ directory. That always updated
the modification time of the headers even if there were no changes,
triggering recompilation of the postgres_ffi bindings. To avoid that,
use 'install -C', to install the PostgreSQL headers.
However, there was an upstream PostgreSQL issue that the
src/include/Makefile didn't respect the INSTALL configure option. That
was just fixed in upstream PostgreSQL, so cherry-pick that fix to our
vendor/postgres repositories.
Fixes https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/1873.
Commit f44afbaf62 updated vendor/postgres-v15 to point to a commit that
was built on top of PostgreSQL 14 rather than 15. So we accidentally had
two copies of PostgreSQL v14 in the repository. Oops. This updates
it to point to the correct version.

Instead of spawning helper threads, we now use Tokio tasks. There
are multiple Tokio runtimes, for different kinds of tasks. One for
serving libpq client connections, another for background operations
like GC and compaction, and so on. That's not strictly required, we
could use just one runtime, but with this you can still get an
overview of what's happening with "top -H".
There's one subtle behavior in how TenantState is updated. Before this
patch, if you deleted all timelines from a tenant, its GC and
compaction loops were stopped, and the tenant went back to Idle
state. We no longer do that. The empty tenant stays Active. The
changes to test_tenant_tasks.py are related to that.
There's still plenty of synchronous code and blocking. For example, we
still use blocking std::io functions for all file I/O, and the
communication with WAL redo processes is still uses low-level unix
poll(). We might want to rewrite those later, but this will do for
now. The model is that local file I/O is considered to be fast enough
that blocking - and preventing other tasks running in the same thread -
is acceptable.
