DBZ-8403 Fix PostgreSQL 17 compilation

When compiling against PG17 on Debian testing with gcc 14, building
fails because of incompatible-pointer-type error. This commit updates
the macros added in e1f8714 to handle the pointer types.

-* [Protobuf-c](https://github.com/protobuf-c/protobuf-c) 1.2+ - used for data serialization
-* [PostGIS](http://www.postgis.net/) 2.1+ - used for Postgres geometric types support

+- [PostGIS](http://www.postgis.net/) 2.1+ - used for Postgres geometric types support
 
 ## Building

-Protocol Buffer support and some PostGIS development packages 
+`postgres-decoderbufs` has to be built from source after installing required dependencies.  The required dependencies are first PostgreSQL
+(for pg_config), PostgreSQL server development packages, protobuf-c for the Protocol Buffer support and some PostGIS development packages.
 
-### Debian
+### Installing Dependencies
 
-    # Core build utilities 
-    apt-get update && apt-get install -f -y software-properties-common build-essential pkg-config git postgresql-server-dev-9.6 
-    
-    # PostGIS dependency
-    apt-get install -f -y libproj-dev liblwgeom-dev
+#### Debian
 
-    # Protobuf-c dependency (requires a non-stable Debian repo)
-    add-apt-repository "deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian testing main contrib" && apt-get update
-    apt-get install -y libprotobuf-c-dev=1.2.1-1+b1
+```bash
+# Core build utilities 
+apt-get update && apt-get install -f -y software-properties-common build-essential pkg-config git postgresql-server-dev-9.6 
 
-The above are taken from the Debezium [docker images](https://github.com/debezium/docker-images).
+# PostGIS dependency
+apt-get install -f -y libproj-dev liblwgeom-dev
 
-### Other Linux distributions
+# Protobuf-c dependency (requires a non-stable Debian repo)
+add-apt-repository "deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian testing main contrib" && apt-get update
+apt-get install -y libprotobuf-c-dev=1.2.1-1+b1
+```
 
-You just need to make sure the above software packages (_or some flavour thereof_) are installed for your distro. 
+When updating the ProtoBuf definition, also install the ProtoBuf C compiler:
+
+```bash
+apt-get install -y protobuf-c-compiler=1.2.*
+```
+
+The above are taken from the Debezium [container images](https://github.com/debezium/docker-images).
+
+#### Other Linux distributions
+
+You just need to make sure the above software packages (_or some flavour thereof_) are installed for your distro.
 Note that the last step from the above sequence is only required for Debian to be able to install `libprotobuf-c-dev:1.2.1`
 
-If you have all of the prerequisites installed you should be able to just:
+### Getting the source code
 
-    make && make install
+If you have all of the above prerequisites installed, clone this git repo to build from source:
+
+```bash
+git clone https://github.com/debezium/postgres-decoderbufs.git
+cd postgres-decoderbufs
+```
+
+### Optional: Re-generating ProtoBuf code
+
+This is only needed after changes to the ProtoBuf definition (_proto/pg_logicaldec.proto):
+
+```bash
+cd proto
+protoc-c --c_out=../src/proto pg_logicaldec.proto
+cd ..
+```
+
+Commit the generated files to git then.
+
+### Building and installing decoderbufs
+
+If you have multiple Postgres versions installed, you can select which version to install decoderbufs into by altering your `$PATH` to point to the right version.
+Then `make` and `make install` for each version.  Here is an example:
+
+```bash
+# Install for Postgres 9.6 if I have multiple local versions
+export PATH=/usr/lib/postgresql/9.6/bin:$PATH
+make
+make install
+```
 
 Once the extension has been installed you just need to enable it and logical replication in postgresql.conf:
 
-    # MODULES
-    shared_preload_libraries = 'decoderbufs'
-    
-    # REPLICATION
-    wal_level = logical             # minimal, archive, hot_standby, or logical (change requires restart)
-    max_wal_senders = 8             # max number of walsender processes (change requires restart)
-    wal_keep_segments = 4           # in logfile segments, 16MB each; 0 disables
-    #wal_sender_timeout = 60s       # in milliseconds; 0 disables
-    max_replication_slots = 4       # max number of replication slots (change requires restart)
+```bash
+# MODULES
+shared_preload_libraries = 'decoderbufs'
+
+# REPLICATION
+wal_level = logical             # minimal, archive, hot_standby, or logical (change requires restart)
+max_wal_senders = 8             # max number of walsender processes (change requires restart)
+wal_keep_segments = 4           # in logfile segments, 16MB each; 0 disables
+#wal_sender_timeout = 60s       # in milliseconds; 0 disables
+max_replication_slots = 4       # max number of replication slots (change requires restart)
+```
 
 In addition, permissions will have to be added for the user that connects to the DB to be able to replicate. This can be modified in _pg\_hba.conf_ like so:
 
-    local   replication     <youruser>                          trust
-    host    replication     <youruser>  127.0.0.1/32            trust
-    host    replication     <youruser>  ::1/128                 trust
-    
+```make
+local   replication     <youruser>                          trust
+host    replication     <youruser>  127.0.0.1/32            trust
+host    replication     <youruser>  ::1/128                 trust
+```
+
 And restart PostgreSQL.
 
 ## Usage
-    -- can use SQL for demo purposes
-    select * from pg_create_logical_replication_slot('decoderbufs_demo', 'decoderbufs');
-    
-    -- DO SOME TABLE MODIFICATIONS (see below about UPDATE/DELETE)
-    
-    -- peek at WAL changes using decoderbufs debug mode for SQL console
-    select data from pg_logical_slot_peek_changes('decoderbufs_demo', NULL, NULL, 'debug-mode', '1');
-    -- get WAL changes using decoderbufs to update the WAL position
-    select data from pg_logical_slot_get_changes('decoderbufs_demo', NULL, NULL, 'debug-mode', '1');
-    
-    -- check the WAL position of logical replicators
-    select * from pg_replication_slots where slot_type = 'logical';

 If you're performing an UPDATE/DELETE on your table and you don't see results for those operations from logical decoding, make sure you have set [REPLICA IDENTITY](http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.4/static/sql-altertable.html#SQL-CREATETABLE-REPLICA-IDENTITY) appropriately for your use case.
