Add note about CreateStatistics()'s selective use of check_rights. Commit 5e4fcbe531 added a check_rights parameter to this function for use by ALTER TABLE commands that re-create statistics objects. However, we intentionally ignore check_rights when verifying relation ownership because this function's lookup could return a different answer than the caller's. This commit adds a note to this effect so that we remember it down the road. Reviewed-by: Noah Misch <noah@leadboat.com> Backpatch-through: 14
