The reset timestamp of each table entry is unfortunately not stored,
look at PgStat_StatTabEntry to see what's stored. Well we could have
that as well, it is important to be careful that the reset is updated
for all tables. Note that the timestamp reset happens in pgstat.c
actually. What you could do for now is to use a wrapper on top of
pg_stat_reset_single_table_counters() that calls now() and stores
timestamp on a custom table storing (oid,timestamp).
