Is there really a need for that? Why not simply put something like
%log_table% in the sql file and let the admin replace it with sed or
whatever he likes?
And it could allow us to move to copy without having to drop the code
added to manage the new GUC variable.

We have basically 4 different cases:
* log_min_duration_statement = 0: every query is logged with the
duration on the same line,
* log_statement = all: we don't have any duration,
* log_statement = all & log_duration = on: we have every query and the
duration on another line,
* log_min_duration_statement = n > 0 & log_duration = on: we have
duration lines for every query and statement + duration if the query
is slower than n ms.
There are other variants but I think they are the main cases to deal with.
