It'd be automatically set by postgres when loading libraries.

Oh, turns out it only builds with meson right now. I forgot that, with
autoconf, for some unknown reason, we only set BUILDING_DLL on some OSs.
I attached a crude patch changing that.

I think that's not realistically possible. It's also very fuzzy what that'd
mean. If there's a planner hook and then the query executes normally, what do
you report for an execution time error? And even the simpler case - should use
of pg_stat_statements cause everything within to be logged as a
pg_stat_statement message?
I think the best we can do is to actually say where the error is directly
triggered from.
