Maybe I'm being naive, but isn't libpq already being compiled for ARM by
Debian? As long as it fits, you should be good. If it doesn't, you'll
need to strip some stuff out.
Oh, can you run Debian ARM code on Arduino? If so, Postgres's libpq
could be used directly, though it is probably too big, as you mentioned.
The MySQL driver is C++, which surprised me.
No, to do that you'd need something like a Beaglebone, which is ARM
Cortex A8 based and runs Linux anyway.

I don't think porting the whole libpq over to an Arduino would be a good
move. For practical purposes a small subset of functionality through
some gateway service would probably be a better approach.
Note that I am not an Arduino user/developer. I'm more familiar with the
Microchip PICs.
