  Check for CREATE privilege on the schema in CREATE STATISTICS.

  Check for CREATE privilege on the schema in CREATE STATISTICS. This omission allowed table owners to create statistics in any schema, potentially leading to unexpected naming conflicts. For ALTER TABLE commands that require re-creating statistics objects, skip this check in case the user has since lost CREATE on the schema. The addition of a second parameter to CreateStatistics() breaks ABI compatibility, but we are unaware of any impacted third-party code.

   Detected

   Missing authorization in PostgreSQL CREATE STATISTICS command allows a table owner to achieve denial of service against other CREATE STATISTICS users by creating in any schema. A later CREATE STATISTICS for the same name, from a user having the CREATE privilege, would then fail. Versions before PostgreSQL 18.1, 17.7, 16.11, 15.15, 14.20, and 13.23 are affected.
