This patch includes only those functions that return the basic values
nobody but the server can provide; all others are some kind of derived
functions, as implemented by some personal needs. They should stay in
contrib, as they all have some limitations (e.g. implementing a subset,
as relation_size which only counts tables, or total_relation_size et al,
which are schema ignorant).
