vacuumdb: Reword --help message for clarity

danielgustafsson · pull[bot] · commit 9238f520fb4e · 2024-04-09T05:02:06.000Z
The --help output stated that schemas were specified using PATTERN when they in fact aren't pattern matched but are required to be exact matches. This changes to SCHEMA to make that clear. Backpatch through v16 where this was introduced.
