Please find attached the patch to send transaction commit/rollback stats to
stats collector unconditionally.

Without this patch, the transactions that do not read from/write to a
database table do not get reported to the stats collector until the client
disconnects. Hence the transaction counts in pg_stat_database do not
increment gradually as one would expect them to. But when such a backend
disconnects, the counts jump dramatically, giving the impression that the
database processed a lot of transactions (potentially thousands) in an
instant.
