Unless you merge the PR, not much, other than having the generated images to
pg-ci-images-dev (which nothing uses in the normal process of things). Only
builds in the "main" branch are used for pg-ci-images, the repo that postgres'
.cirrus.yml references.

No, the change you would need to make is to postgresql's .cirrus.yml to *use*
the generated images, since PR builds are not published to pg-ci-images.
