Doc: clarify n_distinct_inherited setting
There was some confusion around how to adjust the n_distinct estimates
for partitioned tables. Here we try and clarify that
n_distinct_inherited needs to be adjusted rather than n_distinct.
Also fix some slightly misleading text which was talking about table
size rather than table rows, fix a grammatical error, and adjust some
text which indicated that ANALYZE was performing calculations based on
the n_distinct settings. Really it's the query planner that does this
and ANALYZE only stores the overridden n_distinct estimate value in
pg_statistic.
