Did you look at the commit message that introduced it?

commit e7889b83b7059e776f0a3d76bbbdd98687f4592c

   Support SET FROM CURRENT in CREATE/ALTER FUNCTION, ALTER DATABASE, ALTER ROLE.   (Actually, it works as a plain
statementtoo, but I didn't document that   because it seems a bit useless.)  Unify VariableResetStmt with
VariableSetStmt,and clean up some ancient cruft in the representation of   same.
