I think an extra pair of variables rather than a transport option might be
the preferred way to go, given that there is no functional change needed,
just selection of information being made available to the config file writer.

Critiquing the patch:
- I'm not happy it depends on HAVE_MMAP, resulting in inconsistency across
platforms
- I don't see why the information has to be transmitted across processes anyway
(seemingly the reason for the mmap use)
- Are there any use-cases for other transports than appendfile? If not, it
should be a private option not a common one
- Needs testcases and documentation
