I think that this patch shouldn't change pg_stat_statements previous behavior,
and that the previous behavior was correct.

It doesn't change the way we get instrumentation data from parallel workers,
just avoid to have parallel workers call pgss_store and report multiple time
the same activity. The only difference is that now pg_stat_statements won't
setup instrumentation flags, but those should be inherited in parallel worker
from the main process right?
