The authorative answer is that it doesn't matter. The field is there, so
it's reasonable to fill it with something. I suggest that we stick to the
major version of the branch you're working on, so it'd be 7.3 right now
and for the rest of the 7.3.* series.

These strings reflect the internal symbols of the values in the respective
field, which, I would say, is an artifact of the original hackish nature
of pg_controldata. But now that it's an official tool we should change
them to something human readable, as you suggest.
