Package request: libpq-dev
Hello,
While building some 3rd party packages, I found the need to compile and link against postgresql libraries (libpq). Being client-side, there should be no need to install entire postgresql-dev package.
I found that PostgreSQL already provides this subset by installing includes and `libpq.a`.
This request is to generate a `libpq-dev` subpackage of postgresql one, that includes:
- include/libpq-events.h
- include/libpq-fe.h
- include/internal/libpq-int.h
- include/internal/pqexpbuffer.h
- lib/libpq.a
- lib/pkgconfig/libpq.pc
Thank you.

main/postgresql: reduce dependencies for -dev
packages needing postgresql-dev will normally only need the libpq client
libs. We avoid pull in the entire server package by splitting out -libs.
fixes #3642
