Attached patches.
0001 adds new option 'silent' to log_verbosity and 0002 adds on_error
and log_verbosity options to file_fdw.

Here is a quick performance test result.
I loaded 1,000,000 rows using pgbench_accounts to a file and counted the
number of rows using file_fdw on different conditions and compared the
execution times on my laptop.
The changed conditions are below:
- source code: HEAD/patch applied
- data: no error data/all row occur data conversion error at the 1st
column
- file_fdw options: on_error=stop/on_error=ignore
There seems no significant difference in performance between HEAD and
the patch applied with on_error option specified as either ignore/stop
when data has no error.
OTOH when all rows occur data conversion error, it is significantly
faster than other cases:
# HAED(e950fe58bd0)
## data:no error
=# create foreign table t1 (a int, b int, c int, t text) server f_fdw
options (filename 'pgb_ac', format 'csv');
=# select count(*) from t1;
