Обсуждение: Remove more leftovers of AIX support

The make variables MKLDEXPORT and POSTGRES_IMP were only used for AIX,
so they should have been removed with commit 0b16bb8776b.

+1, thanks! Even if we resurrect AIX support later, it's better to 
remove these now, so that we have all the AIX-related changes in the 
same commit that re-introduces the support.

Agreed.  Also, if this or similar code is still needed in AIX,
then presumably the meson infrastructure will need an equivalent.
It'll be confusing if the eventual re-introduction patch touches
only one of the two.
