I'd prefer to have less external dependencies in the repo over time. I took a peek at ikalnytskyi/action-setup-postgres (never hard of it before...) and it does look pretty clean. Though I don't think we need it.

I'm not sure we even need to build on Windows / MacOS or test against PostgreSQL running on either. If we just had something that could run our already build jar on those against a Linux PostgreSQL server I think it's enough. That'd solve a lot of the startup issues.
