These two counters, defined in BufferUsage to track respectively the time spent while reading and writing blocks have historically only tracked data related to shared buffers, when track_io_timing is enabled. An upcoming patch to add specific counters for local buffers will take advantage of this rename as it has come up that no data is currently tracked for local buffers, and tracking local and shared buffers using the same fields would be inconsistent with the treatment done for temp buffers. Renaming the existing fields clarifies what the block type of each stats field is. pg_stat_statement is updated to reflect the rename. No extension version bump is required as 5a3423ad8ee17 has done one, affecting v17~.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
