Reduce likelihood of Postgres table scanning `state_groups_state`. (#10359)

The postgres statistics collector sometimes massively underestimates the
number of distinct state groups are in the `state_groups_state`, which
can cause postgres to use table scans for queries for multiple state
groups.

We fix this by manually setting `n_distinct` on the column.

+-- By default the postgres statistics collector massively underestimates the

+-- cause postgres to use table scans for queries for multiple state groups.
+--
+-- To work around this we can manually tell postgres the number of distinct state
+-- groups there are by setting `n_distinct` (a negative value here is the number
+-- of distinct values divided by the number of rows, so -0.02 means on average
+-- there are 50 rows per distinct value). We don't need a particularly
+-- accurate number here, as a) we just want it to always use index scans and b)
+-- our estimate is going to be better than the one made by the statistics
+-- collector.
+
+ALTER TABLE state_groups_state ALTER COLUMN state_group SET (n_distinct = -0.02);
+
+-- Ideally we'd do an `ANALYZE state_groups_state (state_group)` here so that
+-- the above gets picked up immediately, but that can take a bit of time so we
+-- rely on the autovacuum eventually getting run and doing that in the
+-- background for us.
