commit    a1a5da8cb74b7abf54a1f5fc5b5a442bb807843c
Author:   Robert Haas <rhaas@postgresql.org>
Date:     Tue Oct 17 14:23:31 2023 +0000
First released in: 17.0

    Talk about assigning, rather than generating, new MultiXactIds.
    
    The word "assign" is used in various places internally to describe what
    GetNewMultiXactId does, but the user-facing messages have previously
    said "generate". For consistency, standardize on "assign," which seems
    (at least to me) to be slightly clearer.
