Allow compute_query_id to be set to 'auto' and make it default
Allowing only on/off meant that all either all existing configuration
guides would become obsolete if we disabled it by default, or that we
would have to accept a performance loss in the default config if we
enabled it by default.  By allowing 'auto' as a middle ground, the
performance cost is only paid by those who enable pg_stat_statements and
similar modules.

I only edited the release notes to comment-out a paragraph that is now
factually wrong; further edits are probably needed to describe the
related change in more detail.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
