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.

before this change, any transaction that took longer than 5 minutes
even if it succeeded, would get a retry error included in the
result.
try to make the logic more clear and add comments for the reader.

this commit updates our monkit dependency to the v3 version where
it outputs in an influx style. this makes discovery much easier
as many tools are built to look at it this way.
graphite and rothko will suffer some due to no longer being a tree
based on dots. hopefully time will exist to update rothko to
index based on the new metric format.
it adds an influx output for the statreceiver so that we can
write to influxdb v1 or v2 directly.

it was noticed that if you had a long lived transaction A that
was blocking some other transaction B and A was being aborted
due to retriable errors, then transaction B was never given
priority. this was due to using savepoints to do lightweight
retries.
this behavior was problematic becaue we had some queries blocked
for over 16 hours, so this commit addresses the issue with two
prongs:
1. bound the amount of time we will retry a transaction
2. create new transactions when a retry is needed
the first ensures that we never wait for 16 hours, and the value
chosen is 10 minutes. that should be long enough for an ample
amount of retries for small queries, and huge queries probably
shouldn't be retried, even if possible: it's more preferrable to
find a way to make them smaller.
the second ensures that even in the case of retries, queries that
are blocked on the aborted transaction gain priority to run.
between those two changes, the maximum stall time due to retries
should be bounded to around 10 minutes.

We don't do a lot of panicking in our main code, so hopefully this won't
matter much, but we /do/ call panic a lot in our tests (t.Fatal,
require.NoError, etc). And when that happens, we need pending
transactions to be aborted or we can get into a deadlock situation when
something else tries to /Close/ that connection.

This reverts commit 8e242cd012.
Revert because lib/pq has known issues with context cancellation.
These issues need to be resolved before these changes can be merged.

this will allow for some nice runtime analysis down the road.
also, this allows for wrapping database handles in a way that
can interact with these contexts

These helpers will work similar to the WithTx method we have added to
our dbx.DB instances, but it will use crdb.ExecuteTx or crdb.ExecuteInTx
when the backend is CockroachDB, so that transactions are retried
correctly.
Anything that uses transactions and might need to work against
CockroachDB needs to handle "RetriableError" from cockroachdb by
restarting the transaction. This will probably be a large pain if not
using these helpers or something very like them.
Subsequent changes will undertake transforming all db-transaction uses
in satellite code so that they are cockroach-safe.
