Hi.

I'm just posting this WIP patch where I've renamed fastbloat to
pgstatbloat as suggested by Tomas, and added in the documentation, and
so on. I still have to incorporate Amit's comments about the estimation
of reltuples according to the way vacuum does it, and I expect to post
that tomorrow (I just need to test a little more).

In the meantime, if anyone else was having trouble installing the
extension due to the incorrect version in the control file, this is the
patch you should be using.
