Well, it's an enum value, so first a trivial patch to extractor.h, plus
a human-readable textual description in src/main/extractor_metatypes.c
of what "narinfo" is about.  I'm confused by the choice of 230, the next
free value is 229, and we should not leave holes.  So unless
compatibility is an issue, the value should probably be changed to 229.
