Yeah, this is just a docs bug. It changed in v47 of the original
patchset [1] but I forgot to update the documentation. (It was
originally a before_shmem_exit implementation, which is why that fits
the description well. :D)

I propose the attached diff, with a backport to 18.

Personally I think it's fine for more complicated behavior to require
more integration into the existing server APIs. We don't need to
reinvent OAuth-specific wheels; implementations will just need to pay
attention to memory contexts and _PG_init like standard extensions
already do.
