I just came across this thread and noticed that the patch was never
merged. There is some brief docs for is_superuser in the SHOW docs:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-show.html, but the GUC
fields were never updated.

Is there a reason that it never got merged or was it just forgotten
about?
