At the risk of substantially expanding the scope of these patches, I wonder
if a better long-term approach would be to first centralize the
autovacuum/autoanalyze prioritization code and share it via a system view
that vacuumdb could use in place of the giant query for
--missing-stats-only.  That would also give users visibility into
auto{vacuum,analyze}'s decisions.  TBH I'm not totally sold on the idea of
giving ANALYZE more options for this stuff, if for no other reason than I'm
not really following the concrete use-cases, but I wouldn't say I'm
mortally opposed to it.
