Subject: Query plans not identical for `id in(1,2,3)` and `(id=1 or id=2 or id=3)`

Hi List.
I have a list of bigint keys and I need to retrieve rows by these keys. Normally, I would split this list into pages of
size900 and perform several `SELECT ... WHERE key in($1,$2,...)`. However, the proprietary ORM we use can only produce
thisSQL: `SELECT ... WHERE (key=$1 or key=$2 or ...)`. Surprisingly, PostgreSQL planner treats these two SQLs
differently:
- ```select * FROM "audittrail$referencelogline" where id in ( 1 , 2 , 3 )```
Index Scan

- ```select * FROM "audittrail$referencelogline" where id = 1 or id = 2 or id = 3```
A lot of "Bitmap Index Scan" for each value

Is it possible to configure PostgreSQL 12.16 to treat the second query as the first?
Can you convince your obfuscation layer to send an array value (containing all IDs) and change the query to:
select * FROM "audittrail$referencelogline" where id = any(?)
