Attached is a revised version of this patch. I added a description for
pre_auth_delay (rather than removing it from SHOW ALL). I also removed
explicit mention of units from a bunch of description strings, since
after Peter's work for 8.2, some configuration variables can be
specified or displayed in several possible units. For example, the
current output from SHOW ALL is:

deadlock_timeout | 1s | The time in milliseconds to wait on lock before
checking for deadlock.

... which is plainly not a value "in milliseconds".

Barring any objections, I'll apply this to 8.3 (HEAD) tomorrow.
