I guess you're aware that this doesn't actually do anything, and the 
variants only exist to encourage the user to specify one when installing?

The downsides:
* The situation where the user doesn't specify a variant is 
contradictory. pgcli will be installed with +postgresql96 but 
py-psycopg2 will be installed with +postgresql95. Similarly when the 
user already has py-psycopg2 installed, the variant they specify when 
installing pgcli will have no actual effect.

* Binary distribution now doesn't happen if the user asks for anything 
but +postgresql96, even though the installed files are identical.
