Need this sentence added in the Notes section of sql-reassign-owned:

REASSIGN OWNED will not reassign the ownership of any databases owned by
the role. These still need to be changed using ALTER DATABASE.

I vaguely recall CONNECT privileges being similarly unhandled by REASSIGN
OWNED. Do we really need to fix the docs, or should we fix the code?

I just patched the docs, slightly rewording Josh's suggestion.
