…n installed inside chroot

In its official deb repository, postgresql packages may have the following
names:
postgresql-17
postgresql-16
postgresql-15
etc. The problem here is that the latest minor version will be installed, wherease
users may want a different version.
Solution: packages have versions. Inside pbuilder_install_script.sh.erb we pick
up which version our user wants and match it agains what's available. If it
exists, we install that particular version:
...
apt -y install postgresql-$PG_MAJOR_VERSION=$pkg_version
...
And then build the local podman image named after the chosen postgresql version.
If user selected postgresql version 17.14 on amd64, the image will be called:
pgpm-debian-pg17.4-amd64
BONUS FIX: LD_CONFIG error messages are no longer present!

…d argument" The issue is present on podman hosts when they are themslves KVM guests, but is not present if podman is used on host OS, which iteself is installed on bare metal. Solution: create `faketar` script and patch pbuilder to use it instead of tar. The `faketar` script uses simple `cp` and `mv` commands, which not only help us avoid the issue with `tar`, but also make our builds faster by skipping compression & decompression of tgz. Due to a rather esoteric nature of the problem `faketar` script is reasonable workaround, which also saves on build time.

do we need vim and ripgrep in this image?

I actually decided that yes, because I ended up installing those two every single time I needed to debug an issue. I think those two tools are generally useful, so my suggestions is to keep them. Their relative size is negligible.
