Considering the coming shared-memory based stats collector, pgstat
must be shutdown before shared memory shutdown. Every operation that
requires stats collector also must be shut down before the pgstat
shutdown. A naive solution would be having before-pgstat-shutdown hook
but I'm not sure it's the right direction.

I think we don't want to lose the stats numbers of the to-be-dropped
slot. So the slot-drop must happen before pgstat shutdown.
