Done. This verison 16 looks as if the moving and splitting were
not happen. Major changes are:

 - Restored old pgstats_* names. This largily shrinks the patch
   size to less than a half lines of v15.  More than that, it
   gets easier to examine differences. (checkpointer.c and
   bgwriter.c have a bit stale comments but it is an issue for
   later.)

 - Removed "oneshot" feature at all. This simplifies pgstat API
   and let this patch far less simple.

 - Moved StatsLock to LWTRANCHE_STATS, which is not necessary to
   be in the main tranche.

 - Fixed several bugs revealed by the shrinked size of the patch.

regards.
