Add pg_stats_ext view for extended statistics

Browse Source 
Regular per-column statistics are stored in pg_statistics catalog, which
is however rather difficult to read, so we also have pg_stats view with
a human-reablable version of the data.

For extended statistic the catalog was fairly easy to read, so we did
not have such human-readable view so far.  Commit 9b6babfa2d however did
split the catalog into two, which makes querying harder.  Furthermore,
we want to show the multi-column MCV list in a way similar to per-column
stats (and not as a bytea value).

This commit introduces pg_stats_ext view, joining the two catalogs and
massaging the data to produce human-readable output similar to pg_stats.
It also considers RLS and access privileges - the data is shown only when
the user has access to all columns the extended statistic is defined on.

Bumped CATVERSION due to adding new system view.
