Modules but not extensions

    Hi,

    
    v9.6

    
    https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/contrib.html says " some of
    these modules are not "extensions" in this sense, but are loaded
    into the server in some other way, for instance by way of
    shared_preload_libraries. See the documentation of each module
      for details."

    
    So I looked in https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/adminpack.html
    but it doesn't mention how it's loaded. 
    https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.6/auth-delay.html does, though,
    say that it must be loaded using shared_preload_libraries.

    
    Does this imply "silence means it's an extension"?

    
    Thanks
