This reduces chances of errors where consumers of strings mutate inputs
and reduces memory usage of the app.
Test suite passes now, but there may be some stuff left, so we will run
a few sites on a branch prior to merging
Introduce new patterns for direct sql that are safe and fast.
MiniSql is not prone to memory bloat that can happen with direct PG usage.
It also has an extremely fast materializer and very a convenient API
- DB.exec(sql, *params) => runs sql returns row count
- DB.query(sql, *params) => runs sql returns usable objects (not a hash)
- DB.query_hash(sql, *params) => runs sql returns an array of hashes
- DB.query_single(sql, *params) => runs sql and returns a flat one dimensional array
- DB.build(sql) => returns a sql builder

* In `pg_dump` 10.3+ and 9.5.12+, in
it does a `SELECT pg_catalog.set_config('search_path', '', false)`
which changes the state of the current connection. This is known
to be problematic with Pgbouncer which reuses connections. As such,
we'll always try to connect directly to PG directly during
the backup/restore process.
