I think the release notes for the autovacuum item (which was first reverted and
then partially un-reverted) should say something like "Partitioned tables are
now included in pg_stat_all_tables":
| e1efc5b465 Keep stats up to date for partitioned tables

Remove some internal question/marks:
ACCURATE?
REMOVE?
ALTER TABLE ... ALTER COLUMN ... TYPE RESETS STASTISTICS? (was never intended to have markup added?)

Also, I'm not sure if this one should be included.
9a4c0e36fb Dump ALTER TABLE ... ATTACH PARTITION as a separate ArchiveEntry.
See: https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/20210830154249.GX26465@telsasoft.com#9ad6fd4c36e13deea1c5f92f5114320e

What about this ?
