Hmm .. shouldn't get_statistics_object_oid get a lock on the table that
owns the stats object too?  I think it should be setting *relp to it.
That way, the lock you're proposing to add would be obtained there.
That means it'd be similar to what we do for OBJECT_TRIGGER etc,
get_object_address_relobject().

I admit this'd crash and burn if we had stats on multiple relations,
because there'd be no way to return the multiple relations that would
end up locked.
