This is a very very large change to the module. It started out as a fix to add
postgresl::server::config_entry, and quickly became a rewrite to fix a lot of
ordering issues inherent in the API.
Since this changes the Public API it is considered a backwards compatible
change.
See the upgrading guide in README.md for more details as to what has been
modified in this patch.

Most of these changes are just simple bits but I've wrapped a bunch of
stuff around 80 lines so it's slightly more readable. These should all
be no-op changes.
Previously the validate_db_connection defined type was trying to use inherits
like a class. This of course would fail.
After analyzing its usage, I've removed the need for the top-level params
inherit by just including the 'postgresql' module which pulls in the client
package and the params class as well. It also avoids resource duplication
for the client package as well.
To ensure we don't get regression on this I've added system tests that test
this defined type in a success and failure state.

Thanks to some tricks I learned from Nan Liu and Dan Bode, I was
able to figure out a way to move all of the new version-related stuff
back into the params class, and clean up some of the if/_real stuff.
Basic tests for centos6 + pg 9.2 are passing.
Nan showed me a trick that will let us keep all of that param stuff
inside of params.pp, make it a parameterized class, and still support
the ability for users to specify a custom (non-system-default) pg
version. This commit takes the first step towards that pattern by
consolidating platform.pp and params.pp. (Everything old is new again!)
This commit adds a new resource type that can be used to validate
that a successful postgres connection can be established from a
puppet node to a (potentially remote) postgres database instance.
