>
> Equi-height histogram is effective in handling skewed data distribution.
> For equi-height histogram, the heights of all bins(intervals) are the same.
> The default number of bins we use is 254.
> Now we use a two-step method to generate an equi-height histogram:
> 1. use percentile_approx to get percentiles (end points of the equi-height
> bin intervals);
> 2. use a new aggregate function to get distinct counts in each of these bins.
> Note that this method takes two table scans. In the future we may provide
> other algorithms which need only one table scan.
