Perhaps autovacuum never handled "template0" because it concluded (rightly)

Yes this DB had a table in it that had been autovacuuming since Feb 2. It's
age is half way to wraparound so I'm in the middle of a manual VACUUM
FREEZE on it. I'd be interested in knowing if that prevents template0 from
autovacuuming itself. There are no other autovacuum jobs running.
I think we did put in a change that would prevent any one database from
completely consuming autovacuum's attention, even in wraparound-hazard
situations. Don't recall when.
This?:
https://git.postgresql.org/gitweb/?p=postgresql.git;a=commit;h=dd9ac7d5d80608a640bb82cffb6a805ce84cf112
which I believe is only for 12 and is in the 12.3 release.
Do you have an idea why autovac was failing to clear the issue on that one
problem table, though?
