the table being analyzed.  This prevents two ANALYZEs from running
concurrently on the same table and possibly suffering concurrent-update
failures while trying to store their results into pg_statistic.  The
downside is that a database-wide ANALYZE executed within a transaction
block will hold ShareUpdateExclusiveLock on many tables simultaneously,
which could lead to concurrency issues or even deadlock against another
such ANALYZE.  However, this seems a corner case of less importance
than getting unexpected errors from a foreground ANALYZE when autovacuum
elects to analyze the same table concurrently.  Per discussion.
