Description Sam James archtester

postgres 16 has support for buliding with meson and will eventually switch entirely.

I believe titanofold already played w/ porting the live ebuild although it wasn't committed yet.

It's in our interests to at the very least test it out and report any issues before there's no alternative, but it should also allow cleaning up the ebuild quite a bit and give a compile-time improvement.
