Peter Eisentraut b55f62abb2 Unify DLSUFFIX on Darwin
macOS has traditionally used extension .dylib for shared libraries
(used at build time) and .so for dynamically loaded modules (used by
dlopen()).  This complicates the build system a bit.  Also, Meson uses
.dylib for both, so it would be worth unifying this in order to be
able to get equal build output.

There doesn't appear to be any reason to use any particular extension
for dlopened modules, since dlopen() will accept anything and
PostgreSQL is well-factored to be able to deal with any extension.
Other software packages that I have handy appear to be about 50/50
split on which extension they use for their plugins.  So it seems
possible to change this safely.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
