When MERGE/SPLIT created new partitions, it was cloning the extended
statistics of the parent table.
However, extended stats on partitioned tables don't behave like
indexes on partitioned tables (which exist only to create physical
indexes on child tables). Rather, extended stats on a parent 1) cause
extended stats to be collected and computed across the whole partition
hierarchy, and 2) do not cause extended stats to be computed for the
individual partitions.
"CREATE TABLE ... PARTITION OF" command doesn't copy extended
statistics. This commit makes createPartitionTable() behave
consistently.

Linking within DocBook documents can be confusing, so here is a summary:
Intra-document Linking
----------------------
<xref>
use to get chapter/section number from the title of the target
link, or xreflabel if defined at the target, or refentrytitle if target
is a refentry; has no close tag
http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/documentation/reference/html/xref.html
linkend=
controls the target of the link/xref, required
endterm=
for <xref>, allows the text of the link/xref to be taken from a
different link target title
<link>
use to supply text for the link, only uses linkend, requires </link>
http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/documentation/reference/html/link.html
can be embedded inside of <command>, unlike <xref>
External Linking
----------------
<ulink>
like <link>, but uses a URL (not a document target); requires
</ulink>; if no text is specified, the URL appears as the link
text
http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/documentation/reference/html/ulink.html
url=
used by <ulink> to specify the URL, required
Guidelines
----------
- For an internal link, if you want to supply text, use <link>, else
<xref>.
- Specific nouns like GUC variables, SQL commands, and contrib modules
usually have xreflabels.
- For an external link, use <ulink>, with or without link text.
- xreflabels added to tags prevent the chapter/section for id's from being
referenced; only the xreflabel is accessible. Therefore, use xreflabels
only when linking is common, and chapter/section information is unneeded.
