libpq: Deprecate pg_int64.

Previously we used pg_int64 in three function prototypes in libpq.  It
was added by commit 461ef73f to expose the platform-dependent type used
for int64 in the C89 era.  As of commit 962da900 it is defined as
standard int64_t, and the dust seems to have settled.

Let's just use int64_t directly in these three client-facing functions
instead of (yet) another name.  We've required C99 and thus <stdint.h>
since PostgreSQL 12, C89 and C++98 compilers are long gone, and client
applications very likely use standard types for their own 64-bit needs.
This also cleans up the obscure placement of a new #include <stdint.h>
directive in postgres_ext.h, required for the new definition.  The
typedef was hiding in there for historical reasons, but it doesn't fit
postgres_ext.h's own description of its purpose and there is no evidence
of client applications including postgres_ext.h directly to see it.

Keep a typedef marked deprecated for backward compatibility, but move it
into libpq-fe.h where it was used.
