I'm less sure that that's a good idea. It embeds knowledge here that
should not exist outside elog.c; moreover, I'm not entirely sure that
it's even correct, given the nonlinear ranking of log_min_messages.
Maybe it'd be a good idea to have elog.c expose a new function
along the lines of "bool message_level_is_interesting(int elevel)"
to support this and similar future optimizations in a less fragile way.
