Fujii Masao d1763ea8c9 Change default of pg_stat_statements.track_planning to off.
Since v13 pg_stat_statements is allowed to track the planning time of
statements when track_planning option is enabled. Its default was on.

But this feature could cause more terrible spinlock contentions in
pg_stat_statements. As a result of this, Robins Tharakan reported that
v13 beta1 showed ~45% performance drop at high DB connection counts
(when compared with v12.3) during fully-cached SELECT-only test using
pgbench.

To avoid this performance regression by the default setting,
this commit changes default of pg_stat_statements.track_planning to off.

Back-patch to v13 where pg_stat_statements.track_planning was introduced.
