My opinion on this matter is rather close to what you have here with
handling things through one extra attribute.  But I don't see the
point of using an extra function where users would need to do a manual
mapping of the flag bits back to a a text representation of them.  So
I would suggest to just add one text[] to pg_show_all_settings, with
values being the bit names themselves, without the prefix "GUC_", for
the ones we care most about.  Sticking with one column for each one
would require a catversion bump all the time, which could be
cumbersome in the long run.
