Fix catalog lookup with the wrong snapshot during logical decoding. Previously, we relied on HEAP2_NEW_CID records and XACT_INVALIDATION records to know if the transaction has modified the catalog, and that information is not serialized to snapshot. Therefore, after the restart, if the logical decoding decodes only the commit record of the transaction that has actually modified a catalog, we will miss adding its XID to the snapshot. Thus, we will end up looking at catalogs with the wrong snapshot. To fix this problem, this changes the snapshot builder so that it remembers the last-running-xacts list of the decoded RUNNING_XACTS record after restoring the previously serialized snapshot. Then, we mark the transaction as containing catalog changes if it's in the list of initial running transactions and its commit record has XACT_XINFO_HAS_INVALS. To avoid ABI breakage, we store the array of the initial running transactions in the static variables InitialRunningXacts and NInitialRunningXacts, instead of storing those in SnapBuild or ReorderBuffer. This approach has a false positive; we could end up adding the transaction that didn't change catalog to the snapshot since we cannot distinguish whether the transaction has catalog changes only by checking the COMMIT record. It doesn't have the information on which (sub) transaction has catalog changes, and XACT_XINFO_HAS_INVALS doesn't necessarily indicate that the transaction has catalog change. But that won't be a problem since we use snapshot built during decoding only to read system catalogs. On the master branch, we took a more future-proof approach by writing catalog modifying transactions to the serialized snapshot which avoids the above false positive. But we cannot backpatch it because of a change in the SnapBuild.

# Note that in a case where bgwriter wrote the RUNNING_XACTS record between "s0_commit"

# record written by bgwriter. One might think we can either stop the bgwriter or

# as containing catalog changes while adding tuple cids to its top-level transaction.
# During that, both transaction entries are created in ReorderBuffer as top-level
# transactions and have the same LSN. We check if the assertion check for the order
# of transaction LSNs in AssertTXNLsnOrder() is skipped since we are still before the
# LSN at which we start replaying the contents of transactions. Besides, when decoding
