Hi hackers,

Please find attached a patch to $SUBJECT.

This is preliminary work to autogenerate some wait events
code and documentation done in [1].

The patch introduces 2 new "wait events" (WAIT_EVENT_EXTENSION
and WAIT_EVENT_BUFFER_PIN) and their associated functions
(pgstat_get_wait_extension() and pgstat_get_wait_bufferpin() resp.)

Please note that that would not break extensions outside contrib
that make use of the existing PG_WAIT_EXTENSION.

Looking forward to your feedback,

Regards,
