Can we agree to this?

* If log_statement is on, then we log

query: %s

(Should it be "statement: %s"?) %s has newlines suitable escaped; exactly
how is independent of this discussion.

* If log_duration is on, then we log

duration: x.xxx ms

The user can use log_pid to link it to the statement. (If the user
doesn't like this, he can use log_min_duration_statement=0.)

* If log_min_duration_statement is triggered, then we log

duration: x.xxx ms; query: %s

* If log_statement is on and log_min_duration_statement is triggered, then
we (pick one):

(a) log both as per above, or
(b) log only log_min_duration_statement

* If log_duration is on and log_min_duration_statement is triggered, then
we (pick one):

(a) log both as per above, or
(b) log only log_min_duration_statement
