Increase checkpoint_timeout of cnpg clusters
What does this MR do and why?
Increase checkpoint_timeout of cnpg clusters
This will prevent WAL from growing too fast when replication is blocked, as it will increase the delay between consecutive checkpoints and restartpoints (the default value is 5mn, so the WAL will take 24x more time to get full)
Since our databases handle only few requests, this should not be problematic, as there won't be many changes between the checkpoints.

Test coverage
It has been tested on a local deployment, using network policy to block traffic between pods.
We see that WAL is increasing at a much lower frequency, corresponding to checkpoint_timeout

Global config for deployment pipelines
-
autorun pipelines -
allow failure on pipelines -
record sylvactl events
Notes:
- Enabling
autorunwill make deployment pipelines to be run automatically without human interaction - Disabling
allow failurewill make deployment pipelines mandatory for pipeline success. - if both
autorunandallow failureare disabled, deployment pipelines will need manual triggering but will be blocking the pipeline
Be aware: after configuration change, pipeline is not triggered automatically.
Please run it manually (by clicking the run pipeline button in Pipelines tab) or push new code.
