Be more careful about GucSource for internally-driven GUC settings.
The original advice for hard-wired SetConfigOption calls was to use PGC_S_OVERRIDE, particularly for PGC_INTERNAL GUCs. However, that's really overkill for PGC_INTERNAL GUCs, since there is no possibility that we need to override a user-provided setting. Instead use PGC_S_DYNAMIC_DEFAULT in most places, so that the value will appear with source = 'default' in pg_settings and thereby not be shown by psql's new \dconfig command. The one exception is that when changing in_hot_standby in a hot-standby session, we still use PGC_S_OVERRIDE, because people felt that seeing that in \dconfig would be a good thing. Similarly use PGC_S_DYNAMIC_DEFAULT for the auto-tune value of wal_buffers (if possible, that is if wal_buffers wasn't explicitly set to -1), and for the typical 2MB value of max_stack_depth. In combination these changes remove four not-very-interesting entries from the typical output of \dconfig, all of which people fingered as "why is that showing up?" in the discussion thread.
