Auto start and stop Postgres on application start and close, respectively.

[adrian-lara]

Postgres starts when the application is opened, and it's stopped when the application is closed.

Additionally, some of the previous visual components (and most of the methods producing them) have been removed.

In order to test this, take the following steps for both dev and prod (on Windows):

• delete the PGDATA directory locally (start with a clean DB slate)

• Start the app, and see that the app is initializing the DB while displaying the following:

• After a few moments, the spinner should disappear:

• Verify postgres is running on port 5442

• Close the application

• Verify postgres is no longer running

Note, I ran into an issue in PROD only where execSync (I ended up switching to spawnSync) couldn't navigate directories with spaces in the name, and it wasn't able to close Postgres. It could be worthwhile to test that the installed application can close Postgres when in PROD when the app is located in a directory with a space in the name.

100% success with launching and having postgres start or reconnect to the running database
~50% success with closing the app and having postgres shutdown correctly.

I'll keep testing to try to find out why it doesn't always work
