It still seems like that material doesn't belong there. However, it's
largely a restatement of what's said in section 18.1 in a form that
matches up with the presentation used in the pg_settings view. Maybe
it's okay to apply it as-is and just check to make sure that 18.1 is not
missing any facts given here.
