Type casting in PostgreSQL with updateBatch()

Added the docs: https://github.com/codeigniter4/CodeIgniter4/pull/8426

Big thanks  

The quick and easy fix for this is to use RawSql as well as casting your php values:

Code:

            $data = [
                [
                    'name'                  => 'Derek Jones',
                    'savings'              => (float) '28389.48',
                    'updated_at' => new RawSql("'2023-12-02 18:47:52'::TIMESTAMP"),
                ],
            ];
