Hash id in pg_stat_statements

Can we please expose the internal hash id of the statements in
pg_stat_statements?

I know there was discussions about it earlier, and it wasn't done with
an argument of it not being stable between releases (IIRC). I think we
can live with that drawback, assuming of course that we document this
properly.

I've now run into multiple customer installations where it would be
very useful to have. The usecase is mainly storing snapshots of the
pg_stat_statements output over time and analyzing those. Weird things
happen for example when the query text is the same, but the hash is
different (which can happen for example when a table is dropped and
recreated). And even without that, in order to do anything useful with
it, you end up hashing the query text anyway - so using the already
existing hash would be easier and more useful.
