Fixes https://bugs.gnu.org/46737.
PostgreSQL running with a different socket directory to the default one in the
package itself breaks some services, this commit restores the previous
behaviour where PostgreSQL by default will run with a socket directory that
matches the default used by PostgreSQL packaged for Guix.
Switching to a different default value can happen, but only alongside changing
the PostgreSQL package.
* gnu/services/databases.scm (<postgresql-config-file>)[socket-directory]:
Change default to #false.
* doc/guix.texi (Database Services): Update documentation, and specify a
different value for disabling connections via sockets.
* gnu/tests/guix.scm (%guix-data-service-os): Use default PostgreSQL
behaviour.
* gnu/tests/monitoring.scm (%zabbix-os): Likewise.
* gnu/tests/web.scm (patchwork-os): Likewise.
