I agree that we shouldn't release UUIDv7 support if the RFC describing
that is not yet approved. But I do think it would be a shame if e.g.
the RFC got approved 2 weeks after Postgres its feature freeze. Which
would then mean we'd have to wait another 1.5 years before actually
using uuidv7. Would it be a reasonable compromise to still merge the
patch for PG17 (assuming the code is good to merge with regards to the
current draft RFC), but revert the commit if the RFC is not approved
before some deadline before the release date (e.g. before the first
release candidate)?
