Thank you for the review and the helpful information.
I rebased. Please find attached a patch. I'll add the patch to the next CF.

Changes:

  * cleanups and fixes
  * addition of the following to ALTER FOREIGN TABLE
      ALTER [COLUMN] column SET STATISTICS integer
      ALTER [COLUMN] column SET ( n_distinct = val ) (n_distinct only)
      ALTER [COLUMN] column RESET ( n_distinct )
  * reflection of the force_not_null info in acquiring sample rows
  * documentation

Best regards,
Etsuro Fujita
