Stas Kelvich dad3519351 Add SQL-over-HTTP endpoint to Proxy
This commit introduces an SQL-over-HTTP endpoint in the proxy, with a JSON
response structure resembling that of the node-postgres driver. This method,
using HTTP POST, achieves smaller amortized latencies in edge setups due to
fewer round trips and an enhanced open connection reuse by the v8 engine.

This update involves several intricacies:
1. SQL injection protection: We employed the extended query protocol, modifying
   the rust-postgres driver to send queries in one roundtrip using a text
   protocol rather than binary, bypassing potential issues like those identified
   in https://github.com/sfackler/rust-postgres/issues/1030.

2. Postgres type compatibility: As not all postgres types have binary
   representations (e.g., acl's in pg_class), we adjusted rust-postgres to
   respond with text protocol, simplifying serialization and fixing queries with
   text-only types in response.

3. Data type conversion: Considering JSON supports fewer data types than
   Postgres, we perform conversions where possible, passing all other types as
   strings. Key conversions include:
   - postgres int2, int4, float4, float8 -> json number (NaN and Inf remain
     text)
   - postgres bool, null, text -> json bool, null, string
   - postgres array -> json array
   - postgres json and jsonb -> json object

4. Alignment with node-postgres: To facilitate integration with js libraries,
   we've matched the response structure of node-postgres, returning command tags
   and column oids. Command tag capturing was added to the rust-postgres
   functionality as part of this change.
