This adds a new log line that shows each schema cache query time individually, only on
`log-level=debug`. Like so:
```
$ PGRST_LOG_LEVEL=debug postgrest-with-pg-17 -f test/spec/fixtures/load.sql postgrest-run
....
10/Apr/2026:21:48:45 -0500: Schema cache queried in 192.2 milliseconds
10/Apr/2026:21:48:45 -0500: tables: 72.027 ms, keydeps: 20.118 ms, rels: 6.189 ms, funcs: 35.010 ms, comprels: 4.319 ms, dreps: 1.614 ms, mhandlers: 7.419 ms, tzones: 43.025 ms
```
This helps debug specific schema cache queries being slow like on
https://github.com/PostgREST/postgrest/issues/4613#issuecomment-4210191065 and
https://github.com/PostgREST/postgrest/issues/3046#issuecomment-3469059948.
It also closes https://github.com/PostgREST/postgrest/issues/3215,
which main motivation was to find out which query is slow.
Implementation details
---------------------
To time each query inside a transaction in pure SQL, we do:
```sql
-- start timer
select set_config('pgrst.tmp_x', clock_timestamp()::text, false);
-- run the query
select <query>
-- end timer
select set_config('pgrst.tmp_x', (clock_timestamp() - current_setting('pgrst.tmp_x', false)::timestamptz)::text, false);
-- .... repeated for every query
-- at the end we capture all the timings with
select extract('milliseconds' from current_setting('pgrst.tmp_x', false)::interval), extract(..;
```
Considerations
--------------
Only added this on `log-level=debug` because while the queries are fast
and the data is valuable, it triples the amount of queries we run during schema cache refresh,
which could be troublesome on slow networks. It's possible to reduce the
amount of queries by starting and stopping timers in one statement, but
this would still double the amount of queries and makes the code messy,
doesn't seem worth it.
Also it would pollute pg_stat_statements, it's only required to debug certain
extreme cases anyway.
retryingSchemaCacheLoad flushes the pool upon every retry before it starts reloading the schema. This is too early as schema reloading might take some time during which new connections might be acquired. The consequence is that:
* upon successful schema cache reload we might have some connections created with the old schema cache
* we close connections upon each retry and under load we will keep closing and re-opening connections until schema cache load succeeds
This change is to make sure we flush the pool only after successful schema cache querying but before loading (so that connections acquired during loading wait for it and do not interfere with timing the loading process).
This change introduces a match_log function, that implements lenient matching of log output lines. Tests of log output are retrofited to use the function.
Fixed integer type mapping in OpenAPI 2.0: replaced the invalid integer format with int32/int64 and added the toSwaggerFormat function to map PostgreSQL types to valid OpenAPI 2.0 formats:
smallint -> int32
integer -> int32
bigint -> int64
To avoid repeated querying of `pg_timezone_names` every time schema
cache is reset, `Prefer: timezone` can be disabled by setting
`db-timezone-enabled = false`.

Some helpers are provided for introspecting metrics already (used in JWT cache tests). This change provides facilities to additionally validate emited Observation events.
A new Spec module is also implemented, adding basic tests of schema cache reloading - their main goal is to excercise the new infrastructure.
These files were added to cover the config dumping of
string comparison operators in `JSPath`. Renaming and
adding a comment in these to make it clear.

Right now listening sockets initialization, management and usage is split between App, AppState and Admin modules: they are created in AppState.init and remembered in AppState but used only in App and Admin.
It has several negative consequences:
- sockets are initialized even if not needed (eg. command line invocations like dump-config or dump-schema)
- it is impossible to start listening on a socket after initial schema cache load because it requires AppState
This change decouples listen socket management from AppState. Sockets are created only when needed (ie. not in command line tools invocation) and passed to admin application and to Warp by the App module.
There is unnecessary coupling between observation messages and emited log entries. This causes schema loading logic to emit redundant events: SchemaCacheSummaryObs and SchemaCacheLoadedObs.
Logically - we want to emit a single event containing both summary and timing information. How it is logged is a different matter and should be decoupled.
This commit
* changes observationMessage function returning Text to observationMessages returning [Text] so that it is possible to return multiple (or zero) messages to log based on an observation event
* Removes SchemaCacheSummaryObs constructor from Observation type and adds summary text to SchemaCacheLoadedObs
Set error verbosity using this config. The verbosity can
be set to `verbose` or `minimal` for client error responses.
This only affects client side HTTP responses, server side logs
are not affected by this config.

Diagnosing problems with listener channel notifications not being handled properly by PostgREST connected to read replicas is difficult. Issues might be related to lost connections and listener not being connected to the right host after failover or database server restarts.
This patch adds logging of actual host:port used by libpq connection opened by the listener. It should make it easier to find out if PostgREST is connected to the right host.
* Calculation of hint message when requested relation is not present in schema cache requires creation of a FuzzySet (to use fuzzy search to find candidate tables). For schemas with many tables it is costly.
This patch introduces dbTablesFuzzyIndex in SchemaCache to memoize the FuzzySet creation.
* Additionally, because of FuzzySet large memory requirements, this patch introduces a limit of 500 relations per schema, above which FuzzySet is not created and hint calculation disabled.
The hasSingleUnnamedParam function was only checking the parameter type
but not whether the parameter actually had no name. This caused functions
with a single NAMED parameter (e.g., `foo(data json)`) to incorrectly
match the single-param fallback mode.
The result was a confusing PostgreSQL error 42883 "function does not exist"
instead of a clean PGRST202 error explaining that no matching function
was found.
Added ppName == mempty check so functions with named parameters don't
incorrectly match the single-param fallback.
We don't allow accessing schemas "pg_catalog" and "information_schema".
Instead of silently failing requests on these schemas, this now adds
logging an error on startup when these schemas are found in `db-schemas`
config.

Renames these scripts to `postgrest-with-pg-xx`. The renaming
helps reduce the length of temporary filenames. This is needed
to ensure that socket file names remain under the maximum
