This direct interface to libpq allows simple queries to be run against PostgreSQL and supports timeouts.
Testing is performed using a shim that can use scripted responses to test all aspects of the client code. The shim will be very useful for testing backup scenarios on complex topologies.

No new Perl code is being developed, so these tools are just taking up time and making migrations to newer platforms harder. There are only a few Perl tests remaining with full coverage so the coverage tool does not warn of loss of coverage in most cases.
Remove both tools and associated libraries.
The documentation was relying on a ScalityS3 container built for testing which wasn't very transparent. Instead, use the stock minio container and configure it in the documentation.
Also, install certificates and CA so that TLS verification can be enabled.
Update RHEL repos that have changed upstream. Remove PostgreSQL 9.3 since the RHEL6/7 packages have disappeared.
Remove PostgreSQL versions from U12 that are still getting minor updates so the container does not need to be rebuilt.
LZ4 is included for future development, but this seems like a good time to add it to the containers.
Improve on 7794ab50 by including the build flag files directly into the Makefile as dependencies (even though they are not includes). This simplifies some of the rsync logic and allows make to do what it does best.
Also split build flag files into test, harness, and build to reduce rebuilds. Test flags are used to build test.c, harness flags are used to build the rest of the files in the test harness, and build flags are used for the files that are not directly involved in testing.
Mounting/unmounting tmpfs on /home/[user]/test takes time, forces at least 3GB of memory to be available for tests, and makes it harder to preserve data between tests.
Instead, move mounting of tmpfs to the Vagrantfile and add it to fstab so it survives reboots.
Low-level functions only include stack trace in test builds while higher-level functions ship with stack trace built-in. Stack traces include all parameters passed to the function but production builds only create the parameter list when the log level is set high enough, i.e. debug or trace depending on the function.
Switch from Devel::Cover because it would not report on branch coverage for reports converted from gcov.
Branch coverage is not complete, so for the time being errors will only be generated when statement coverage is not complete. Coverage of unit tests is not displayed in the report unless they are incomplete for either statement or branch coverage.
* More optimized container suite that greatly improves build time.
* Added static Debian packages for Devel::Cover to reduce build time.
* Add deprecated state for containers. Deprecated containers may only be used to build packages.
* Remove Debian 8 from CI because it does not provide additional coverage over Ubuntu 14.04 and Ubuntu 16.04.
Refactor storage layer to allow for new repository filesystems using drivers. (Reviewed by Cynthia Shang.)
Refactor IO layer to allow for new compression formats, checksum types, and other capabilities using filters. (Reviewed by Cynthia Shang.)
* Full coverage is verified when specified.
* Modules marked with partial coverage will error if they are actually fully covered.
* Simplified test representation is DefineTest.
* Added new representation for queries in DefineTest and added API functions.
* Update modules using DefineTest to use new API.
* Containers now use a squid proxy for apt/yum to speed builds.
* Obsolete containers are removed by the <br-option>--vm-force</br-option> option.
* Greatly reduced the quantity of Docker containers built by default. Containers are only built for PostgreSQL versions specified in db-minimal and those required to build documentation. Additional containers can be built with --db-version=all or by specifying a version, e.g. --db-version=9.4.
* This will help catch Perl errors in the doc code since it is not run across multiple OSs like the core and test code.
* It is to be hoped that a newer kernel will make Docker more stable.
Perl Critic added and passes on gentle. A policy file has been created with some permanent exceptions and a list of policies to be fixed in approximately the order they should be fixed in.
1) Tests for all operating systems can now be run with a single command.
2) Tests can be run in parallel with --process-max.
3) Container generation now integrated into test.pl
4) Some basic test documentation.
