FWIW, I looked the patch over quickly, and I think it will be fine once
Bernd's comments are addressed.  In particular I agree with the
objection to the name "pg_setting" as being confusingly close to
"pg_settings".  But "pg_user_setting" isn't better.  Maybe
"pg_db_role_settings"?

As far as the lock issue goes, I don't see any reason why the catalog
change creates a reason for new/different locking than we had before.
Any attempt to make concurrent updates to the same row will generate an
error, and that seems enough to me ...
