Since there don't seem to be any more objections to "security_invoker" I
attached v10 renaming it again.
I've tried to better clarify the whole invoker vs. definer thing in the
CREATE VIEW documentation by explicitly mentioning that
"security_invoker=false" is _not_ the same as "security definer", based
on the earlier discussions.
This should hopefully avoid any implicit associations.
Thanks,
