AIX: Fix missing libpq symbols by respecting SHLIB_EXPORTS.
We make each AIX shared library export all globals found in .o files
that originate in the library. That doesn't include symbols acquired by
-lpgcommon_shlib. That is good on average, but it became a problem for
libpq when commit e6afa8918c461c1dd80c5063a950518fa4e950cd moved five
official libpq API symbols into src/common. Fix this by implementing
the SHLIB_EXPORTS mechanism for AIX, so affected libraries export the
same symbols that they export on Linux. This reintroduces symbols
pg_encoding_to_char, pg_utf_mblen, pg_char_to_encoding,
pg_valid_server_encoding, and pg_valid_server_encoding_id. Back-patch
to v13, where the aforementioned commit first appeared. While a minor
release is usually the wrong time to add or remove symbol exports in
libpq or libecpg, we should expect users to want each documented symbol.
