feat(pgdb): add PG* environment variable fallback in OpenPool

When no DATABASE_URI or config file is found, fall through to
pgxpool.ParseConfig("") which natively reads standard PG* variables
(PGHOST, PGUSER, PGPASSWORD, PGDATABASE, etc.). This removes
unnecessary ceremony in CI and container environments where PG* vars
are already set.
