### What changes were proposed in this pull request?

This pr add support analyze all tables in a specific database:
```g4
 ANALYZE TABLES ((FROM | IN) multipartIdentifier)? COMPUTE STATISTICS (identifier)?
```

### Why are the changes needed?

1. Make it easy to analyze all tables in a specific database.
2. PostgreSQL has a similar implementation: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/12/sql-analyze.html.

### Does this PR introduce _any_ user-facing change?

No.

### How was this patch tested?

The feature tested by unit test.

### Description
The `ANALYZE TABLES` statement collects statistics about all the tables in a specified database to be used by the query optimizer to find a better query execution plan.
### Syntax
```sql
ANALYZE TABLES [ { FROM | IN } database_name ] COMPUTE STATISTICS [ NOSCAN ]
```
### Parameters
* **{ FROM `|` IN } database_name**
Specifies the name of the database to be analyzed. Without a database name, `ANALYZE` collects all tables in the current database that the current user has permission to analyze.
* **[ NOSCAN ]**
Collects only the table's size in bytes (which does not require scanning the entire table).
### Examples
```sql
CREATE DATABASE school_db;
USE school_db;
CREATE TABLE teachers (name STRING, teacher_id INT);
INSERT INTO teachers VALUES ('Tom', 1), ('Jerry', 2);
CREATE TABLE students (name STRING, student_id INT, age SHORT);
INSERT INTO students VALUES ('Mark', 111111, 10), ('John', 222222, 11);
ANALYZE TABLES IN school_db COMPUTE STATISTICS NOSCAN;
DESC EXTENDED teachers;
