I think the idea is to require TRUNCATE privilege on all the tables
being truncated in the command.  This would substitute for the existing
ownership check.

I do have a concern here, which is that GRANT ALL on a table didn't use
to convey TRUNCATE, but now it will.  However, since GRANT ALL does
confer the right to do "DELETE FROM tab", maybe this isn't an issue.
