Standardize terminology for pg_statistic_ext entries.
Consistently refer to such an entry as a "statistics object", not just"statistics" or "extended statistics". Previously we had a mismash ofterms, accompanied by utter confusion as to whether the term wassingular or plural. That's not only grating (at least to the ear ofa native English speaker) but could be outright misleading, eg in errormessages that seemed to be referring to multiple objects where only onecould be meant.This commit fixes the code and a lot of comments (though I may havemissed a few). I also renamed two new SQL functions,pg_get_statisticsextdef -> pg_get_statisticsobjdefpg_statistic_ext_is_visible -> pg_statistics_obj_is_visibleto conform better with this terminology.I have not touched the SGML docs other than fixing those functionnames; the docs certainly need work but it seems like a separable task.Discussion:https://postgr.es/m/22676.1494557205@sss.pgh.pa.us
