I'm not a huge fan of adding this as a contrib module unless we can be
quite sure that there's a path forward from here to a rework of the
logging in core which would actually support the features pg_audit is
adding, without a lot of pain and upgrade issues. Those issues have
kept other contrib modules from being added to core.
Splitting up contrib into other pieces, one of which is a 'features'
area, might address that but we'd really need a way to have those pieces
be able to include/add catalog tables, at least..

I'd expect a catalog table or perhaps changes to pg_class (maybe other
things also..) to define what gets logged.. I'd also like to see the
ability to log based on the connecting user, and we need to log under
what privileges a command is executing, and, really, a whole host of
other things..
