-----------
Change patternsel (LIKE/regex selectivity estimation) so that if there
is a large enough histogram, it will use the number of matches in the
histogram to derive a selectivity estimate, rather than the admittedly
pretty bogus heuristics involving examining the pattern contents. I set
'large enough' at 100, but perhaps we should change that later. Also
apply the same technique in contrib/ltree's <@ and @> estimator. Per
discussion with Stefan Kaltenbrunner and Matteo Beccati.
