vacuum_defer_cleanup_age

Hi,

vacuum_defer_cleanup_age is categorized as "Statement Behavior"
parameter in the document. On the other hand, it's categorized
as "Hot Standby" one in postgresql.conf. Why do we need to do so?

Yeah, there's clearly a mismatch. I think "Hot Standby" is the right 
place, altough you could argue that it should be together with 
vacuum_freeze_min_age and vacuum_freeze_table_age too.

We seem to be missing an entry for "Write-Ahead Log / Hot Standby" in 
the config_group_names list in guc.c. hot_standby GUC marked to beling 
in WAL_SETTINGS in guc.c.

What's the policy with that, should all the sections in the sample 
config file and docs have a corresponding enum in config_group_names? I 
guess they should, but many of them seem to be missing. There's no 
separate entry in config_group_names for "Write-Ahead Log / Archiving", 
"Resource Usage / Cost-Based Vacuum Delay" and "Resource Usage / 
Asynchronous Behavior" either, for example.

Should I add entries in the enum for all the missing ones?

+1. This seems sensible.

Here is a patch to do that. I used terms in the documentation for category
names. Also, some uncategorized variables moved into detailed groups.

Added categories:
  Resource Usage / Cost-Based Vacuum Delay
  Resource Usage / Background Writer
  Resource Usage / Asynchronous Behavior
  Write-Ahead Log / Archiving
  Write-Ahead Log / Standby Servers

Renamed in the configuration file:
  Replication ==> Streaming Replication
  Hot Standby ==> Standby Servers

Thanks, looks good to me.
