This adds a new configuration option `load_balancer_class` that allows users to specify which load balancer provider should handle the service when running multiple providers in the same cluster. The setting can be configured globally via the OperatorConfiguration CRD and will be applied to all LoadBalancer services (master, replica, and connection pooler services). Fixes #2600 |

Postgres Operator
The Postgres Operator delivers an easy to run highly-available PostgreSQL clusters on Kubernetes (K8s) powered by Patroni.

Operator features
- Rolling updates on Postgres cluster changes, incl. quick minor version updates
- Live volume resize without pod restarts (AWS EBS, PVC)
- Database connection pooling with PGBouncer
- Support fast in place major version upgrade. Supports global upgrade of all clusters.
- Pod protection during bootstrap phase and configurable maintenance windows
- Restore and cloning Postgres clusters on AWS, GCS and Azure
- Additionally logical backups to S3 or GCS bucket can be configured

- Configurable for non-cloud environments
- Basic credential and user management on K8s, eases application deployments
- Support for custom TLS certificates
