Oops, I forgot to add one thing to the previous mail.
If we agree with removing PendingWalStats.wal_[ write | sync ]_time
variables, then it would make sense to remove PgStat_PendingWalStats
struct completely. We have that struct because [1] it is cheap to
store PendingWalStats.wal_[ write | sync ]_time as instr_time instead
of PgStat_Counter.
