Subject: [PATCH v2] doc: Clarify VERBOSE output for ANALYZE and VACUUM

ANALYZE VERBOSE emits a detailed per-table INFO level report, like
VACUUM VERBOSE.  Reword both option descriptions to convey the
server's perspective ("sends" rather than "prints") and to clarify
the timing of the output.  Use identical wording for the two commands
for consistency.
