Tom Lane ea31541f56 Give a better error for duplicate entries in VACUUM/ANALYZE column list.
Previously, the code didn't think about this case and would just try to
analyze such a column twice.  That would fail at the point of inserting
the second version of the pg_statistic row, with obscure error messsages
like "duplicate key value violates unique constraint" or "tuple already
updated by self", depending on context and PG version.  We could allow
the case by ignoring duplicate column specifications, but it seems better
to reject it explicitly.

The bogus error messages seem like arguably a bug, so back-patch to
all supported versions.

Nathan Bossart, per a report from Michael Paquier, and whacked
around a bit by me.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.
