Thanks for taking some time to review my patch, Arthur!

This sounds like a good idea to me; Somebody already suggested that tracking an "average plan" would be interesting as
well,however I don't have any clever ideas on how to identify such a plan.

This is also sensible, however if any more kinds of plans would be added in the future, there would be a lot of flags
inthis function. I think having varying amounts of flags (between extension versions) as arguments to the function also
makesany upgrade paths difficult. Thinking more about this, we could also user function overloading to avoid this.
An alternative would be to have the caller pass the type of plan he wants to reset. Omitting the type would result in
thedeletion of all plans, maybe?
pg_stat_statements_plan_reset(in queryid bigint, in plan_type text)
I'm not sure if there are any better ways to do this?

You're right about all of those, thanks!
