This seems like a good change. It would be nice to see us completely
get rid of all the appendStringInfo* calls, apart from in the
functions which meant to handle the behaviour specific to the explain
format. This is a step towards that, so has my vote.
Functions like show_hash_info are making it difficult to do more in this area.
