Accept a brokered libpq environment as connection information
AUDIT-WP-0005-T02. The rapp-postgres credential playbook has the
railiance-platform broker inject PGUSER/PGPASSWORD/PGHOST/PGPORT/PGDATABASE
into the child process. audit-core only accepted AUDIT_CORE_DATABASE_URL, so
consuming a brokered lease would have meant assembling a DSN by hand from the
injected variables - putting the credential back into audit-core's own
configuration, which is what the lane exists to avoid.

An empty conninfo lets libpq read those variables directly, so a brokered lease
now needs no DSN at all. AUDIT_CORE_DATABASE_URL still works for local and test
use. Missing both is a clear startup error naming each option.

Tests 80 -> 82.

"""Behaviour every durable audit backend must satisfy.
One suite, run against every backend. This is what makes "the Postgres backend
is done" mean something: it is the same contract SQLite already passes, not a
parallel set of tests that happen to be green.
Postgres tests are skipped unless a server is reachable. Point
``AUDIT_CORE_TEST_DATABASE_URL`` at one, or run ``make pg-test-up`` to start a
throwaway container.
