While working on something else I noticed $SUBJECT: we are allocating
more memory than necessary and copying more data than necessary
because we specify the wrong PgStat_KindInfo member as the size
argument for MemoryContextAlloc and memcpy. This could become
problematic if snapshotting a very large number of variables stats, so
I fixed it. Attached is a patch for that.

Best regards,
