With my RTM hat on, if we think that the current semantics of
log_statement_sample_rate are broken and need a redesign, then I would
take the safest path and just revert the original patch in v12, and
finally make sure that it brews correctly for v13. We are in beta2
and close to a beta3, so redesigning things at this stage on a stable
branch sounds wrong.
