There are many grammar flavors that depend on the parse node
VariableSetStmt. This closes the gap in pg_stat_statements by providing
test coverage for what should be a large majority of them, improving more
the work begun in de2aca2885. This will be used to ease the
evaluation of a path towards more normalization of SET queries with
query jumbling.
Note that SET NAMES (grammar from the standard, synonym of SET
client_encoding) is omitted on purpose, this could use UTF8 with a
conditional script where UTF8 is supported, but that does not seem worth
the maintenance cost for the sake of these tests.
The author has submitted most of these in a TAP test (filled in any
holes I could spot), still queries in a SQL file of pg_stat_statements
is able to achieve the same goal while being easier to look at when
testing normalization patterns.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
