I am wondering if this patch should be backpatched?

The reason being is in auto_explain documentation [1],
there is a claim of equivalence of the auto_explain.log_verbose
option and EXPLAIN(verbose)

"..... it's equivalent to the VERBOSE option of EXPLAIN."

This can be quite confusing for users of the extension.
The documentation should either be updated or a backpatch
all the way down to 14, which the version the query identifier
was moved to core. I am in favor of the latter.

Any thoughts?
