Re: stats for network traffic WIP

Patch applies and builds against git HEAD (as of 6790e738031089d5). "make
check" runs cleanly as well.

The new features appear to work as advertised as far as I've been able to
check.

The code looks good as far as I can see. Documentation patches are
included for the new features.

Still to be tested:
the counts for streaming replication (no replication setup here to test
against yet).
