FWIW, this is what I was proposing. We have an "include_dir
postgresql.conf.d" currently in the stock postgresql.conf, but it's
disabled (commented out) by default. I'd just like it enabled by
default, and to pass a suggestion to the packagers that they pick an
appropriate directory and enable it by default.
