feat(restore): replay pg_dumpall cluster dumps

A databases.csv row asking for every database of an instance
(database = '*') makes the backup side write <instance>.cluster.backup.sql
via pg_dumpall, and nothing could read it back: the restore CLI knew
files, postgres and mariadb. That dump was stored and unrestorable - a
format whose producer had no consumer.

Adds `baudolo-restore cluster`. Three properties of a cluster stream
shape it, and each one bit during development:

- It recreates databases, and CREATE DATABASE cannot run inside a
  transaction block. So unlike the single-database replay this one must
  NOT be wrapped in --single-transaction. The unit tests now pin both
  contracts against each other.
- It recreates every role including the one the replay connects as, and
  the pre-clean cannot drop the role holding its own session. That
  single CREATE ROLE is filtered out of the stream while its ALTER ROLE
  is kept, because that is what carries the attributes and the password.
  Found by running it: the first replay died on `role "postgres"
  already exists`.
- --empty means more than for one database: the cluster's databases go
  first, then DROP OWNED BY releases what a role still holds in the
  control database, then the roles themselves. The order is pinned by a
  phase column because \gexec would otherwise emit them interleaved, and
  a role cannot be dropped while it still owns a database.

Without --empty the replay stops at the first object that already
exists. Recreating a cluster over a populated one is a decision, not a
default.

The e2e test drills the real thing: two databases and their owning role
are dropped outright and have to come back with their payload and their
ownership intact.

"""Replay a full PostgreSQL cluster dump produced by ``pg_dumpall``.
The backup side writes one when a databases.csv row asks for every database of
an instance (``database = '*'``, see ``backup/db.py``). Until now nothing read
it back, so that dump was stored and unrestorable - a format whose producer has
no consumer.
A cluster stream differs from a single-database one in three ways that decide
the implementation:
* it recreates roles and databases, so it must be replayed against the control
database rather than into a target database;
* ``CREATE DATABASE`` cannot run inside a transaction block, so unlike
:mod:`baudolo.restore.db.postgres` the replay must not be wrapped in
``--single-transaction``;
* it is replayed as a superuser, so the superuser-only statements that the
single-database path filters out are exactly the ones that have to survive.
