Attached is a patch that removes a now-false statement from the
documentation: stats_row_level is enabled by default in HEAD, so the
stats traffic in the default configuration is not necessarily small. I
just removed the whole paragraph; anyone want to argue we should
rephrase the paragraph instead?

- Since the parameters <varname>stats_block_level</varname>, and
- <varname>stats_row_level</varname> default to <literal>false</>,
- very few statistics are collected in the default
- configuration. Enabling either of these configuration
- variables will significantly increase the amount of useful data
- produced by the statistics facilities, at the expense of
- additional run-time overhead.
