3dffdefd6e fix(docs) Resolve 196 mdx lint warnings for just, quickly, actually, PostgreSQL (#47358)
Closes DOCS-1057
Contributes to DOCS-1052

## I have read the
[CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
file.

YES

## Problem

We have hundreds of MDX lint warnings in our docs going against style
best practices.

## Solution

Remove and replace in context the following:

- PostgreSQL. There was only one. There was concern about exceptions,
but I found none.
- Just
- Quickly
- Actually

### What changed

Edits follow the [Google developer documentation style
guide](https://developers.google.com/style): concise, direct, active
voice. The flagged words were removed when the sentence still read well,
or replaced when meaning needed to be preserved.

### Common patterns

| Flagged word | Approach | Example |
|---|---|---|
| **just** (filler) | Removed | "you just installed" → "you installed" |
| **just** (limiting) | **only** | "just one row" → "only one row" |
| **just like** | **like** / **the same as** | "function just like
regular users" → "function like regular users" |
| **not just** | **not only** | "not just errors" → "not only errors" |
| **quickly** (performance) | **efficiently** or removed | "find rows
quickly" → "find rows efficiently" |
| **quickly** (time) | **soon** / **rapidly** / removed | "expires too
quickly" → "expires too soon" |
| **actually** (filler) | Removed | "actually execute" → "execute"; "is
actually the most common" → "is the most common" |

## Tophatting

1. See the diff.
2. See that content continues to make sense in context.
3. Locally, `cd apps/docs` and run `pnpm run lint:mdx`.
4. Search for "just," "actually," "quickly", and "PostgreSQL" and see
there are 0 warnings.

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **Documentation**
* Updated wording across quickstarts, guides, and troubleshooting
articles for grammar, clarity, and consistent step-by-step phrasing.
* Clarified key concepts including Row Level Security policy evaluation
across Supabase products, deferred foreign key constraint behavior, and

Download and run the installation file for the latest version from the [Postgres installer download page](https://www.postgresql.org/download/windows/).

<StepHikeCompact.Details title="Add Postgres to your system PATH" fullWidth>
Add the Postgres binary to your system PATH.
In Control Panel, under the Advanced tab of System Properties, click Environment Variables. Edit the Path variable by adding the path to the SQL binary you installed.
The path will look something like this, though it may differ slightly depending on your installed version:
```
C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\17\bin
```
</StepHikeCompact.Details>

Open your terminal and run the following command:
```sh
psql --version
```
<Admonition type="tip">
If you get an error that psql is not available or cannot be found, check that you have correctly added the binary to your system PATH. Also try restarting your terminal.

<StepHikeCompact.Details title="Install Postgres" fullWidth>
Install Postgres via Homebrew by running the following command in your terminal:
```sh
brew install postgresql@17
```
</StepHikeCompact.Details>
</StepHikeCompact.Step>
<StepHikeCompact.Step step={3}>
<StepHikeCompact.Details title="Verify that psql is working" fullWidth>
Restart your terminal and run the following command:
```sh
psql --version
```
If you get an error that psql is not available or cannot be found then the PATH variable is likely either not correctly set or you need to restart your terminal.
You can add the Postgres installation path to your PATH variable by running the following command:
```sh
brew info postgresql@17
```
The above command will give an output like this:
```sh
If you need to have postgresql@17 first in your PATH, run:
echo 'export PATH="/opt/homebrew/opt/postgresql@17/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.zshrc
```
Run the command mentioned and restart the terminal.
