Comment (by wpgurudev):

 I think the second approach would be useful because of following reasons.

 1. There can be some other options like `_transient_dirsize_cache` which
 can have performance impacts.

 2. There need to be a general provision to filter out such options from
 `alloptions` query which can hamper the performance.

 3. Changing the transient autoload value to `no` can have some unknown
 side-effects.

 Adding the patch here which adds a function `wp_filter_autoloaded_options`
 and a filter `exlude_autoloaded_options` to filter out the undesirable
 options from `alloptions` query.
