feat(testing): add full integration test suite

This commit introduces a comprehensive integration test suite for the pgsql-broker.

The test suite includes:
- A Docker/Podman environment for running a PostgreSQL database, managed via a .
- Integration tests that cover the broker's lifecycle, including job creation, execution, and instance management.
- A GitHub Actions workflow to automate the execution of all tests on push and pull requests.
- A dedicated test configuration file () and helper test files.

refactor(worker): fix job processing transaction
- The worker's job processing now uses a single transaction to fetch and run a job, resolving a race condition where jobs were not in the 'running' state when being executed.
- The broker's database instance registration is now more robust, handling cases where another instance is already active.

The Makefile has been significantly updated to orchestrate the entire test flow, including setting up the database, starting/stopping the broker, and running unit and integration tests separately.
