Yes, it can be called two or more times for a call to
pgstat_report_stat, but the patch causes only the first of them convey
effective connection stats numbers. This is the same way as how
transaction stats are treated. If no table activities have taken
place at all, pgStatXactCommit/Rollback are not consumed then the
following condition:

leads to a call to pgstat_send_tabstat() and it sends a tabstat
message without a table stats, which is a "partial message".
In this logic the condition term (pgStatXactCommit > 0 ||
pgStatXactRollback > 0) acts as a single-shot trigger.
So we can piggy-back on the condition to send something only once.
The patch sets "0" = (DISCONNECT_NOT_YET) to m_disconnect as the
"not-effective" number, but it would be better to add
DISCONNECT_something to express that state.
