Take the database password from PGPASSWORD, not the DSN
The chart asked for a whole DSN in a Secret. Nothing writes one: the Zalando postgres operator generates a Secret with `username` and `password` keys and no connection string, so wiring the wrapper chart up would have meant hand-maintaining a second copy of a password the operator owns and rotates on a from-scratch rebuild -- which is charts#176 again, the issue miniflux closed by doing the opposite. So the DSN becomes a plain value with no password in it, and the password arrives as PGPASSWORD from a Secret. pgx fills in from libpq's PG* environment variables whatever the DSN omits, exactly as miniflux's lib/pq does. Verified rather than assumed, against a real server: a password-less DSN connects with PGPASSWORD set, and fails with `password authentication failed` when it is wrong, so the variable is doing the work rather than being quietly ignored. It also keeps the credential out of the rendered manifest and out of `kubectl describe pod`, which a DSN-with-password does not.
