OpenHalo with Stackgres

Problem to solve

From time to time I am in need of hosting a MySQL compatible database server for services like Wordpress. OpenHALO solves this dilemma for me with PostgreSQL, but I don't have a clear way to deploy it from Stackgres.

Further details

The benefit is one database server for MySQL/Maria/Mongo/Postgresql databases

Proposal

Create the necessary plumbing to add the extension into Stackgres and deploy it with an easy documented runbook; similar to how Stackgres is already using FerretDB.

Testing

I am unsure of the risks, but maybe memory leaks would require further testing.

Acceptance Criteria

A runbook in that demonstrates easy deployment of openHalo using Stackgres manifests
