The pre-check for PostgreSQL needs to look for pgsql and changed the error text to link to the PostgreSQL PDO documentation instead of the Microsoft SQL Server documentation.

Usage Overview
See docs/en for more information about configuring the module.
Known issues
All column and table names must be double-quoted. PostgreSQL automatically lower-cases columns, and your queries will fail if you don't.
Ts_vector columns are not automatically detected by the built-in search filters. That means if you're doing a search through the CMS on a ModelAdmin object, it will use LIKE queries which are very slow. If you're writing your own front-end search system, you can specify the columns to use for search purposes, and you get the full benefits of T-Search.
If you are using unsupported modules, there may be instances of MySQL-specific SQL queries which will need to be made database-agnostic where possible.
