What:
Use the github.com/jackc/pgx postgresql driver in place of
github.com/lib/pq.
Why:
github.com/lib/pq has some problems with error handling and context
cancellations (i.e. it might even issue queries or DML statements more
than once! see https://github.com/lib/pq/issues/939). The
github.com/jackx/pgx library appears not to have these problems, and
also appears to be better engineered and implemented (in particular, it
doesn't use "exceptions by panic"). It should also give us some
performance improvements in some cases, and even more so if we can use
it directly instead of going through the database/sql layer.

this will allow us to inspect the type of `db.Driver()` on *sql.DB
connections to correctly differentiate between pg and crdb conns.
as a bonus, this moves all concerns about when to replace "cockroach://"
with "postgres://" out of view, letting the thin shim "driver" take care
of that.

for storj-sim to work, we need to avoid schemas in cockroach urls
so we have storj-sim create namespaced databases instead of schemas
and we have the migrate command create the database in the same way
that it would create a schema for postgres. then it works!
a follow up commit will move the creation of the database/schemas
into storj-sim's setup step so that we can avoid doing these icky
creations during normal migration calls. it will also make the
pointerdb have an explicit call to migrate instead of just doing
it every time it's opened.
