Heikki Linnakangas 3a44774227 impr(ci): Simplify build-macos workflow, prepare for rust communicator (#12357)
Don't build walproposer-lib as a separate job. It only takes a few
seconds, after you have built all its dependencies.

Don't cache the Neon Pg extensions in the per-postgres-version caches.
This is in preparation for the communicator project, which will
introduce Rust parts to the Neon Pg extension, which complicates the
build process. With that, the 'make neon-pg-ext' step requires some of
the Rust bits to be built already, or it will build them on the spot,
which in turn requires all the Rust sources to be present, and we don't
want to repeat that part for each Postgres version anyway. To prepare
for that, rely on "make all" to build the neon extension and the rust
bits in the correct order instead. Building the neon extension doesn't
currently take very long anyway after you have built Postgres itself, so
you don't gain much by caching it. See
https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/pull/12266.

Add an explicit "rustup update" step to update the toolchain. It's not
strictly necessary right now, because currently "make all" will only
invoke "cargo build" once and the race condition described in the
comment doesn't happen. But prepare for the future.

To further simplify the build, get rid of the separate 'build-postgres'
jobs too, and just build Postgres as a step in the main job. That makes
the overall workflow run longer, because we no longer build all the
postgres versions in parallel (although you still get intra-runner
parallelism thanks to `make -j`), but that's acceptable. In the
cache-hit case, it might even be a little faster because there is less
overhead from launching jobs, and in the cache-miss case, it's maybe
5-10 minutes slower altogether.
