Both configures in the conformance job take -DALL=ON: the PostgreSQL extension
the SQL routes run over, and the standalone libmeos the streaming engine links.

ALL means all. A family left out is stripped at preprocess time, so a job
without it reports on a smaller MobilityDB than the one it names, and -DALL=ON
covers a family added later where a list of names written here would not. This
tier generates its temporal type table from a catalog that covers every family,
so a database or a library narrower than that catalog cannot answer for the
types the tier declares it knows: the table names 23 temporal types, among them
tcbuffer, tpose, trgeometry and ts2cell.

The dependencies are MobilityDB's own, from its pgversion.yml. libh3 is the H3
family's library, located on disk and pinned through -DH3_INCLUDE_DIR and
-DH3_LIBRARY because the pgdg package layout differs between releases. The
vendored pgPointCloud that POINTCLOUD compiles needs the autotools with
libxml2 and zlib. The h3 and pointcloud PostgreSQL extensions are a separate
need from their libraries: MobilityDB's control file requires them when their
family is on, so CREATE EXTENSION pulls them in and they must exist in the
cluster, and apt.postgresql.org carries both for the PostgreSQL this job runs.

Measured against a libmeos built this way, whose meos.pc reads CBUFFER=1 H3=1
JSON=1 NPOINT=1 POINTCLOUD=1 POSE=1 QUADBIN=1 RASTER=1 RGEO=1 S2CELL=1, the
tier builds, vets and runs its whole suite unchanged.
