Subject: [PATCH v56 5/6] Remove the GUC stats_temp_directory
Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2020 22:59:33 +0900

The new stats collection system doesn't need temporary directory, so
just remove it. pg_stat_statements modified to use pg_stat directory
to store its temporary files.  As the result basebackup copies the
pg_stat_statments' temporary file if exists.
