If only core developer is interested in this view, ISTM that short

Yes, for a developer option alone adding all these *_short_desc functions looks
too much code for too less benefit. However, if someone with less code affinity
is interested to debug his server during recovery, it might be easier for him to interpret the statistic counters.

Unfortunately i didn't manage to do it this week, but what i'm also interested in is how large the performance regression is if the track_recovery variable is activated. Not sure wether it really makes a big difference, but maybe debugging recovery from a large archive could slow down to a degree, where you want the GUC but can't afford it?

And, for display purposes, when this is intended for developers only, shouldn't it be treated like all the other debug options as a DEVELOPER_OPTION, too?
