OK, so plan is (a) update perltidyrc to add --valign-exclusion-list,
(b) adjust pgindent/README to recommend perltidy version 20221112.

Questions:

* I see that there's now a 20230309 release, should we consider that
instead?

* emacs.samples provides pgsql-perl-style that claims to match
perltidy's rules. Does that need any adjustment? I don't see
anything in it that looks relevant, but I'm not terribly familiar
with emacs' Perl formatting options.

regards, tom lane
