* stack.yaml: Add postgresql to nix packages
It was detected that Aeson encoding had high memory usage when
the json payload was large, around x60 the payload size.
With this change we get around x10 payload size memory usage.
The encodeUtf8(when doing a Text -> ByteString with `toS`) function
on a large payload also contributed to the high memory usage.
Main idea to reduce the memory usage was to let the ByteString coming
from the request body go to the database unchanged.
postgrest depends on postgres and zlib. When using stack's nix
integration, these dependencies must be specified explicitly.
Note that `--nix` must be passed to stack, or `nix.enable:true` must
be set in `stack.yaml` to enable using nix while building.
* Bring packages up to date
* New LTS includes deps now
Use stack to select most versions
* Alphabetize packages
* Strip down packages
Switch tests to protolude
* Appease cabal check with base version constraint
