Mmm ... that doesn't sound better to me. I think it wouldn't be
obvious that pg_log_warning and pg_log_hint are fundamentally
different sorts of things: in the first, "warning" refers to
an error severity level, while in the second, "hint" refers to
a message component. I'm not wedded to the way I did it in this
patch, but I think we ought to maintain a notational distinction
between those two sorts of concepts.
