Neither of those names is consistent with any other PGDATA subdirectory
name we use. It should just be config, or perhaps pg_config, though the
latter risks confusion with the tool of the same name.
FWIW, I do think that having "auto" or some such in the file name(s)
would be a good idea, to help warn people off editing them manually.
