databases/postgresql??-*: Update to latest version

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released an update to all
supported versions of PostgreSQL, including 14.5, 13.8, 12.12, 11.17,
and 10.22, as well as the third beta release of PostgreSQL 15. This
release closes one security vulnerability and fixes over 40 bugs
reported over the last three months.

PostgreSQL 10 will stop receiving fixes on November 10, 2022. If you are
running PostgreSQL 10 in a production environment, we strongly advise
that you make plans to upgrade to a newer, supported version of
PostgreSQL so you can continue to receive bug and security fixes.

databases/postgresql??-*: updated to latest version

This release contains a variety of fixes from the previous version.

A dump/restore is not required for those running the same major version.
However, note that installations using physical replication should
update standby servers before the primary server, as explained in the
release notes.

Also, several bugs have been found that may have resulted in corrupted
indexes, as explained in the next several changelog entries.  If any of
those cases apply to you, it's recommended to reindex possibly-affected
indexes after updating.

This release also mitigates two possible man-in-the-middle attacks.

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released an update to all
supported versions of our database system, including 12.3, 11.8, 10.13,
9.6.18, and 9.5.22.  This release fixes one security issue found in the
PostgreSQL server and over 75 bugs reported over the last three months.

Please plan to update at your earliest convenience.

Update the backup warning text. [1]

Add plpython and plperl libs for hstore, jsonb and ltree for the versions where
they exist. These libs are added to the postgresql??-plpython and -plperl
ports, inspired by [2].

Upgrade PostgreSQL to latest version

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released an update to all supported
versions of our database system, including 11.4, 10.9, 9.6.14, 9.5.18, and
9.4.23, as well as the second beta of PostgreSQL 12. This release fixes one
security issue and over 25 bugs since the previous cumulative update in May.

This release is made outside of the normal update release schedule as the
security vulnerability was determined to be critical enough to distribute the
fix as quickly as possible. Users who are running PostgreSQL 10, PostgreSQL 11,
or the PostgreSQL 12 beta should upgrade as soon as possible.

All other users should plan to apply this update at the next scheduled
downtime.

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released an update to all
supported versions of our database system, including 11.3, 10.8, 9.6.13,
9.5.17, and 9.4.22. This release fixes two security issues in the
PostgreSQL server, a security issue found in two of the PostgreSQL
Windows installers, and over 60 bugs reported over the last three months.

Security:	CVE-2019-10129: Memory disclosure in partition routing

Prior to this release, a user running PostgreSQL 11 can read arbitrary
bytes of server memory by executing a purpose-crafted INSERT statement
to a partitioned table.

Security:	CVE-2019-10130: Selectivity estimators bypass row security policies

PostgreSQL maintains statistics for tables by sampling data available in
columns; this data is consulted during the query planning process. Prior
to this release, a user able to execute SQL queries with permissions to
read a given column could craft a leaky operator that could read
whatever data had been sampled from that column.  If this happened to
include values from rows that the user is forbidden to see by a row
security policy, the user could effectively bypass the policy.  This is
fixed by only allowing a non-leakproof operator to use this data if
there are no relevant row security policies for the table.

This issue is present in PostgreSQL 9.5, 9.6, 10, and 11. The PostgreSQL
project thanks Dean Rasheed for reporting this problem.

Also fix a FreeBSD port problem with LLVM [1] and add promote command
to `service postgresql` [2]

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group has released an update to all
supported versions of our database system, including 11.2, 10.7, 9.6.12,
9.5.16, and 9.4.21. This release changes the behavior in how PostgreSQL
interfaces with `fsync()` and includes fixes for partitioning and over
70 other bugs that were reported over the past three months.

Users should plan to apply this update at the next scheduled downtime.

FreeBSD port adds OPTIONS knob to support LLVM JIT. [1]

Highlight: Change in behavior with fsync()
------------------------------------------

When available in an operating system and enabled in the configuration
file (which it is by default), PostgreSQL uses the kernel function
`fsync()` to help ensure that data is written to a disk. In some
operating systems that provide `fsync()`, when the kernel is unable to
write out the data, it returns a failure and flushes the data that was
supposed to be written from its data buffers.

This flushing operation has an unfortunate side-effect for PostgreSQL:
if PostgreSQL tries again to write the data to disk by again calling
`fsync()`, `fsync()` will report back that it succeeded, but the data
that PostgreSQL believed to be saved to the disk would not actually be
written. This presents a possible data corruption scenario.

This update modifies how PostgreSQL handles a `fsync()` failure:
PostgreSQL will no longer retry calling `fsync()` but instead will
panic. In this case, PostgreSQL can then replay the data from the
write-ahead log (WAL) to help ensure the data is written. While this may
appear to be a suboptimal solution, there are presently few alternatives
and, based on reports, the problem case occurs extremely rarely.

A new server parameter `data_sync_retry` has been added to manage this
behavior. If you are certain that your kernel does not discard dirty
data buffers in such scenarios, you can set `data_sync_retry` to `on` to
restore the old behavior.

The PostgreSQL Global Development Group today announced the release of
PostgreSQL 11, the latest version of the world's most advanced open
source database.

PostgreSQL 11 provides users with improvements to overall performance of
the database system, with specific enhancements associated with very
large databases and high computational workloads. Further, PostgreSQL 11
makes significant improvements to the table partitioning system, adds
support for stored procedures capable of transaction management,
improves query parallelism and adds parallelized data definition
capabilities, and introduces just-in-time (JIT) compilation for
accelerating the execution of expressions in queries.

"For PostgreSQL 11, our development community focused on adding features
that improve PostgreSQL's ability to manage very large databases," said
