Robert Haas c65bc2e1d1 Make it possible for loadable modules to add EXPLAIN options.
Modules can use RegisterExtensionExplainOption to register new
EXPLAIN options, and GetExplainExtensionId, GetExplainExtensionState,
and SetExplainExtensionState to store related state inside the
ExplainState object.

Since this substantially increases the amount of code that needs
to handle ExplainState-related tasks, move a few bits of existing
code to a new file explain_state.c and add the rest of this
infrastructure there.

See the comments at the top of explain_state.c for further
explanation of how this mechanism works.

This does not yet provide a way for such such options to do anything
useful. The intention is that we'll add hooks for that purpose in a
separate commit.
