Title: Tweaks

Ensure that it is possible to avoid WAL-logging whenever that is sane. Add
additional useful instrumentation and input sanitization. Assume that the
ordinary case is that the user wants new data. Make benchmark scale
configurable. Use dbgen in verbose mode for additional information. Add comment
to database indicating when it was created (viewable with '\l+' in psql). Show
elapsed time.

For now, my immediate interest is mostly in data-loading. I'm sure I can take another look at this from the perspective of general performance optimisation in the future, though.
