Tom Lane 857808a411 Doc: improve explanation of when custom GUCs appear in pg_settings.
Be more clear about when and how an extension-defined GUC comes to be
visible in pg_settings.  (Move the para to the bottom of the page, too;
whoever thought this point was more important than the para about the
view being updatable had odd priorities IMNSHO.)

Back-patch to v15 where archive modules were added, since that seems
to have made this more of a sore spot than it was before.

are documented so fixing by adding the unit which is "bytes".

doc: avoid saying "inheritance" ...
... when it applies to partitioned relations.  This is almost the
opposite of 0c06534bd6, which removed references to "partition" in
favour of "child".
