This also adds references to this new chapter at relevant sections of
our documentation. Previously much of these internal details were
exposed to users, but not explained. This also updates RELEASE
SAVEPOINT.

pg_ident_file_mappings.line_number was described as a line number in
pg_ident.conf for a "rule" number, but this should refer to a "map".
The same inconsistent term was used in the main paragraph describing the
view.
Extracted from a patch by the same author. Issue introduced by
a2c8499 where this view has been added.

This may be a bit too subtle, but removing that word from there makes
this clause no longer a perfect parallel of the GRANT variant "ALL
TABLES IN SCHEMA": indeed, for publications what we record is the schema
itself, not the tables therein, which means that any tables added to the
schema in the future are also published. This is completely different
to what GRANT does, which is affect only the tables that exist when the
command is executed.
There isn't resounding support for this change, but there are a few
positive votes and no opposition. Because the time to 15 RC1 is very
short, let's get this out now.
Backpatch to 15.

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.

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