My inclination is not to expose that, and just use CUSTOM_OPTIONS
always. As was noted earlier, the config_group enumeration seems
really ad-hoc and subject to change, so keeping external modules away
from it seems the best thing to me.
We do need to move some of the GUC flags #defines (not sure about all
of them...) into guc.h, if we want to take the position that external
modules shouldn't import guc_tables.h.
