    Doc: Clarify lock levels taken during ATTACH PARTITION · 5a8a9be0
    David Rowley authored
    It wasn't all that clear which lock levels, if any, would be held on the
    DEFAULT partition during an ATTACH PARTITION operation.
    
    Also, clarify which locks will be taken if the DEFAULT partition or the
    table being attached are themselves partitioned tables.
    
    Here I'm only backpatching to v12 as before then we obtained an ACCESS
    EXCLUSIVE lock on the partitioned table.  It seems much less relevant to
    mention which locks are taken on other tables when the partitioned table
    itself is locked with an ACCESS EXCLUSIVE lock.
