Migrate to a postgres master-slave cluster #32

Because the current one is broken

Beyond the fact that it's freakin cool, do we need a master-slave cluster for the little data we have?

It's less about the data, more about reliability - I don't trust TARDIS/the rickety compsoc machine :)

At the moment we have a master-master cluster using MariaDB, but it's having some locking issues (which result in being unable to write to the db, a slight issue).
