For example, on macOS with Homebrew we can find out what PostgreSQL runtimes we could have with:

  1. Obtain list of PostgreSQL formulae: brew formulae | egrep ^postgresql@.
  2. Get JSON information (e.g. version) for these with brew info --json ....

We can select an appropriate runtime the same as now, but then install it if necessary.

Similar story for Debian/Ubuntu and other platforms.

cargo-pgrx does something broadly similar to this, but more general: it downloads the PostgreSQL source and compiles it. Not sure I want to go down that path – but, on the other hand, it may be possible to reuse that functionality.
