By increasing the delays in this test by factor 400x, postgrest will not
swamp pg with connection retries after the failed schema cache anymore.
This would happen because there is no backoff included after fatal
errors. Once it does, the io tests hang indefinitely in CI.
The statement timeout needs to be cleaned up after each test that
modifies it instead of before the test. Otherwise the changed timeout
leaks into other tests.
Defaulting to max-jobs = auto should improve build times by using more
cores.
Setting always-allow-substitutes to true should cause all nix
derivations to be cached on cachix, which should improve performance of
the MacOS job dramatically, when no rebuilds need to happen.
The release / tag job has logic to decide whether to push a new tag on
stable branches, which depends on the all the tags being fetched. The
checkout action doesn't do that by default, so enable that.
This work by automatically pushing a new tag on main and release
branches after each commit. The tag will be "devel" on main and the
version from postgrest.cabal for release branches. The release
workflow then runs as a tag pipeline, making the actual release.
For release branches, the tag will only be created if a tag for this
version doesn't exist, yet. This means to actually make a new patch
release, we still need to bump the version in postgrest.cabal. We
can automate this later as part of our backport-bot.

This now behaves similar to other CI build jobs, which always run on the
main branches, but only conditionally on PRs, depending on which files
changed.
Using the -latest tag is potentially prone to errors, because an update of the tag
could break our CI. This recently happend with macos-latest, which we downgraded
to macos-12 earlier.
Using an explicit version reference makes this problem much less likely - in fact
renovate will pick up new versions once they exist and will suggest updates for it.
Thus, we will see the failures in a related PR instead of randomly everywhere.
f9ee1f7e introduced the hoisting of function settings as transaction-scoped
settings. However, this currently doesn't work with memory units, which are
case-sensitive according to the docs [1]. This removes the lowercasing of
values to make them work.
This is not added to the CHANGELOG, because this feature was not released, yet.

A previous commit allowed to select each tool separately on the toolbox.
This commit makes use of that for CI to possibly speed up loading from cachix
a little bit. It will also cause fewer cache misses when nix code is changed.
Resolves#3183
This is to reduce storage requirements for GitHub Actions cache. We already build with GHC 9.4.x
via Nix on Linux x64, via stack on FreeBSD, MacOS and Windows and via Cabal on Linux ARM. That
should cover 9.4.x enough.
The Lint & Style job needs to run on all PRs, not only when something "test" related
changes. Otherwise not all workflow, nix or other files are style-checked and linted.
The enable-executable-static flag is set by default, so doesn't make a difference.
The pkg-config improvement for libpq was merged upstream, so we can use the same
here already.
This documents supported GHC versions. GHC 9.8.1 is currently commented
out to reflect the fact that PostgREST can't currently be built with it
straight from hackage - we still require some overrides in cabal.project
for that.
Splitting the output into separate files and adding top-level newlines makes this
much better to read and understand when looking at diffs.
Inspired by #1699
All those DROP IF EXISTS and CREATE IF NOT EXISTS etc. just give a lot more text to
read and understand. If in fact a user creates the same thing twice, they should be
able to understand the error message from postgres.
The jwt_token type was not created consistently in all examples, which can
be confusing when following those. To return an object with a single key
named token, it's enough to have an OUT parameter to the function.

Those were left out of the schema dump when the features were introduced, probably
because ByteString doesn't have a toJSON instance. Changing the type to Text solves
this easily.
Resolves#3237
The obviously wrong statement is, that PostgREST does not support asymmetric keys, while it
does. Extending on this type of attack is not necessary, because it is in fact covered by
the paragraph before - reading the algorithm from the JWT header is the problem in that case,
too. We don't do that.
This leaves us with the sentence about how the chosen library is the most important part. While
that is correct, the hint about high quality libraries for use on the *client* side is mis-
leading: The important part here is the library we choose to implement PostgREST with, not the
client-side lib. Thus, removing the whole paragraph is the best thing to do here.

Some users connect PostgREST to the wrong PostgreSQL instance - likely because they are
not even aware that another instance is running. By using the standard port 5432 instead
of 5433, we avoid this problem. The user will be made aware very early that they have
another postgresql instance running - and can solve the problem at this stage. If they
decide to change the port, they are much more likely to remember that in the later stages
of the tutorial, too.

Commit 85fbb233 accidentally changed the default socket location in which libpq is
looking for postgresql unix sockets. This is changed in nixpkgs via patch. By imp-
orting the default patches, this is changed back to what it was before. Without
those patches it was changed from /run/postgresql to /tmp.
Not a bugfix, because it was not released, yet.
This moves the _build folder into the repo root, to avoid postgrest-watch ending in an
infinite loop of restarting the build.
Also, for repeated use during development, running linkcheck is not a good idea, this
will quickly result in rate-limiting requests from various servers.
