> [`EXPLAIN`](...) now shows the time spent for I/O block reads and writes I think this needs some adjustment: IIUC the new feature in PG17's 295c36c0 is that we now also track (and show) timings for local blocks. I/O timings on shared and temp blocks were already tracked (and displayed with the BUFFERS option) when track_io_timing was enabled: temp timing was introduced with efb0ef90 in early April 2022, and the output of IO timings for shared blocks has existed since the introduction of track_io_timing in 40b9b957 back in late March of 2012.
