Alex Vandiver b0e3191434 puppet: Stop relying on "tidy" ordering, which ignores metaparams.
The `tidy` parameter is buggy, and ignores all ordering
metaparameters.  This is fixed in Puppet 7[^1], but it's helpful to
resolve it now.  Specifically, this fixes bugs with tidy running too
early, and deleting the old version of a package before its new
version is installed or symlinked, leaving a race condition if
anything tries to run the binary in this window.

This is mostly not a problem for Supervisor-managed processes, since
the binary is already running, and can continue to run if it is tidied
out from under the running process.  For stand-alone tools like wal-g,
which are run frequently by PostgreSQL, this may cause issues if
PostgreSQL tries to call them during a puppet run.

Remove all complicated uses of tidy, and replace them with an `exec`
which does the equivalent.  We also generate `file` resources for
binaries, making them easier (and clearer) to specify as dependencies.
