Add test doing some cloning of extended statistics data

The test added in this commit copies the data of an ANALYZE run on one
relation to a secondary relation with the same attribute definitions and
extended statistics objects.  Once the clone is done, the target and
origin should have the same extended statistics information, with no
differences.

This test would have been able to catch e3094679b983, for example, as we
expect the full range of statistics to be copied over, with no
differences generated between the results of an ANALYZE and the data
copied to the cloned relation.

Note that this new test should remain at the bottom of stats_import.sql,
so as any additions in the main relation and its clone are automatically
covered when copying their statistics, so as it would work as a sanity
check in the future.
