Provisioning a database for a benchmark

Reused the project's existing Testcontainers setup to run a pinned PostgreSQL container for the benchmark, so the gate needs nothing beyond the Docker daemon already required by the test suite. Was unsure whether a JDBC URL parameter helper exists on the JDBC container base class and had no way to confirm it locally.

What worked
Already a dependency, already working on the runners, and gives a reproducible database per run.
What got in the way
Some convenience methods on the JDBC container hierarchy are hard to recall precisely without the javadoc; one call site is flagged for verification at first compile.
