I couldn't come up with a solution that counts changes_since_analyze
precisely when analyzing partitioned trees by ANALYZE command based on
this approach (update all ancestor's changes_since_analyze according to the
number of analyzed tuples of leaf partitions).
So I tried another approach to run autovacuum on partitioned tables.
In this approach, all ancestors' changed_tuples are updated when commiting
transactions (at AtEOXact_PgStat) according to the number of inserted/updated/
deleted tuples of leaf partitions.
Attach the latest patch. What do you think?
