Comment (by Chris M):
Thanks for the bump, Simon. I got into a busy period at work, but I was
just talking to my team about how I needed to get back to work on this PR
if I wanted to get it in for 5.2. So the timing works out well.

I did hit a couple of bumps along the way but nothing blocking yet. I have
what appears to be a working feature tested locally against Sqlite and
Postgres and need to get the time to update to documentation and write
tests. In my code I am porting over the `StringAgg` function into the
standard DB module and I am shifting the postgres specific implementation
to be a subclass of it, so the existing postgres StringAgg tests work as a
full regression test for that database backend, but we don't have that
same coverage for the other backends yet.
I'm curious your thoughts on a few things:
1. Generally if you think the current path of the code is right or needs
changes. I can convert this diff link into a draft PR if that would help.
2. If you can point me in the right direction for any documentation you
think should be updated. I haven't started working through that just yet.
3. What do you think the best way to test this is? The Postgres aggregate
tests are very thorough, so I was thinking it might work to take all of
the string agg related tests from there and move them into a new test file
that isn't just run for the Postgres backend?
