Add PostgreSQL storage backend

Add a PostgresStore implementation behind the "postgres" feature
flag, mirroring the existing SqliteStore. Uses tokio-postgres
(async-native) with an internal tokio runtime for the sync
KVStoreSync trait, following the VssStore pattern.

Includes unit tests, integration tests (channel full cycle and
node restart), and a CI workflow that runs both against a
PostgreSQL service container.
