The primary purpose of adding the relid is to optimize queries on
pg_statistics in pg_dump.

+ *
* The redundant filter clause on s.tablename = ANY(...) seems
* sufficient to convince the planner to use
* pg_class_relname_nsp_index, which avoids a full scan of pg_stats.
- * This may not work for all versions.
+ * This seems to work for all version prior to v19, after which we
+ * will use the starelid, which is simpler.

pg_stats_ext and pg_stats_ext_expr do not have the same concern.

If we do add relid there, it will be for consistency only.
