This increases the minimum version of adbc-driver-postgresql to 1.9.0. While we could support older versions still

This itself requires a bump to the minimum version of Python to 3.10.0. While slightly unfortunate, Python 3.9 is EOL at the time of writing, and can't support everything for ever: suspect there are better ways to use time

This increases the minimum version of adbc-driver-postgresql to 1.9.0. While we
could support older versions still

- We run up against GitHub actions limits by trying to test absolutely every
  version. Assuming adbc-driver-postgresql is semver, each minor version is
  backward compatible, so it shouldn't be a problem for client code to upgrade.

- And it makes it easier in documentation, tests, and suspect future code that
  we can assume that apache/arrow-adbc#3579 is part of
  adbc-driver-postgresql, which allows preparing queries to return
  as-accurate-as-possible type information for bind parameters in queries, which
  addresses at least in part the issues raised in
  apache/arrow-adbc#2865 (comment)

This itself requires a bump to the minimum version of Python to 3.10.0. While
slightly unfortunate, Python 3.9 is EOL at the time of writing, and can't
support everything for ever: suspect there are better ways to use time.
