I agree that the "processing database" message isn't too exciting, but
it seems that forcing per-table messages up to LOG level would create
even more log clutter. I could support "processing table" at level
DEBUG1 and "processing database" at DEBUG2. Or maybe we should think
harder about the idea recently mentioned of letting the autovacuum
process have its own log-level setting, separate from ordinary backends'
setting.
