---------------------------+----------------------
 Currently when building the Windows installer, we re-purpose the
 `libpq.dll` provided by the bundled PHP for use with the PostgreSQL FDO
 provider if enabled.

 However, this version of `libpq.dll` is not the latest and doesn't connect
 to the latest PostgreSQL 16 servers and will leave an unpleasant
 experience for users who were expecting the PostgreSQL FDO provider to be
 working "out of the box" with the latest version of PostgreSQL.

 To avoid this unexpected behaviour and to eliminate the need for end-users
 to have to dll swap `libpq.dll` with a newer version, let's just do the
 work for them and just bundle the latest `libpq.dll` into the Windows
 installer.
