Kurtis Van Gent f630965937 feat!: consolidate "x-postgres-generic" tools to "postgres-sql" tool (#43)
This PR introduces the following breaking change: The
`alloydb-pg-generic`, `cloud-sql-pg-generic`, and
`postgres-generic-tool` have been replaced by the `postgres-sql` tool,
which works with all 3 Postgres sources.

If you were using of the the previous tools, you will need to update it
as follows:
```diff
example_tool:
-    kind: cloud-sql-pg-generic
+    kind: postgres-sql
     source: my-cloud-sql-pg-instance
     description: some description
        statement: |
            SELECT * FROM SQL_STATEMENT;
        parameters:
        - name: country
          type: string
          description: some description
```

I'm proposing this change for the following reasons:
1. It provides greater flexibility between postgres-compatible sources
-- you can change between "postgres" and "alloydb-postgres" without
issue
2. The name "postgres-sql" is more clear that "postgres-generic" -- it
indicates it's a tool that runs SQL on the source
3. It's easier for us to maintain feature compatibility across a single
"postgres-sql" tool

Postgres SQL Tool

A "postgres-sql" tool executes a pre-defined SQL statement against a postgres database. It's compatible with any of the following sources:

The specified SQL statement is executed as a prepared statement, and specified parameters will inserted according to their position: e.g. "$1" will be the first parameter specified, "$@" will be the second parameter, and so on.

Example

tools:
 search_flights_by_number:
    kind: postgres-sql
    source: my-pg-instance
    statement: |
      SELECT * FROM flights
      WHERE airline = $1
      AND flight_number = $2
      LIMIT 10
    description: |
      Use this tool to get information for a specific flight.
      Takes an airline code and flight number and returns info on the flight.
      Do NOT use this tool with a flight id. Do NOT guess an airline code or flight number.
      A airline code is a code for an airline service consisting of two-character
      airline designator and followed by flight number, which is 1 to 4 digit number.
      For example, if given CY 0123, the airline is "CY", and flight_number is "123".
      Another example for this is DL 1234, the airline is "DL", and flight_number is "1234".
      If the tool returns more than one option choose the date closes to today.
      Example:
      {{
          "airline": "CY",
          "flight_number": "888",
      }}
      Example:
      {{
          "airline": "DL",
          "flight_number": "1234",
      }}
    parameters:
      - name: airline
        type: string
        description: Airline unique 2 letter identifier
      - name: flight_number
        type: string
        description: 1 to 4 digit number
