Pigsty v3: 336 extensions and MSSQL/Oracle flavor PG kernels!

The [Pigsty](https://pigsty.io/) community is thrilled to announce Pigsty [v3.0](https://github.com/Vonng/pigsty/releases/tag/v3.0.0), which delivers [336](https://pigsty.io/docs/pgext/list/) unique extensions. and several in-place PG kernel replacements.

You can replace vanilla PostgreSQL with [Babelfish](https://pigsty.io/docs/kernel/babelfish/) for MSSQL compatibility, with [`IvorySQL`](https://pigsty.io/docs/kernel/ivorysql) for ORACLE compatibility, and [`PolarDB`](https://pigsty.io/docs/kernel/polardb/) for Aurora flavor. You can also wrap any existing PostgreSQL kernel / RDS with add-ons: serving MongoDB wire protocol with the latest [`FerretDB`](https://pigsty.io/docs/ferret/) or the self-hosting firebase alternative [`Supabase`](https://pigsty.io/docs/kernel/supabase/), which is newly available on Debian/Ubuntu in addition to EL distros.

We also have [`DuckDB`](https://pigsty.io/docs/pro/duckdb/) support with the CLI binary and PostgreSQL extensions, such as `pg_lakehouse` / `pg_analytics` / `duckdb_fdw` and `pg_duckdb` (alpha) and many other extensions, to serve the OLAP race in the PG ecosystem. Check the complete [release note](https://pigsty.io/blog/releases/v3.0.0/) for all the details.
