Be clear about whether a recovery pause has taken effect. 

Previously, the code and documentation seem to have essentially
assumed than a call to pg_wal_replay_pause() would take place
immediately, but that's not the case, because we only check for a
pause in certain places. This means that a tool that uses this
function and then wants to do something else afterward that is
dependent on the pause having taken effect doesn't know how long it
needs to wait to be sure that no more WAL is going to be replayed.

To avoid that, add a new function pg_get_wal_replay_pause_state()
which returns either 'not paused', 'paused requested', or 'paused'.
After calling pg_wal_replay_pause() the status will immediate change
from 'not paused' to 'pause requested'; when the startup process
has noticed this, the status will change to 'pause'.  For backward
compatibility, pg_is_wal_replay_paused() still exists and returns
the same thing as before: true if a pause has been requested,
whether or not it has taken effect yet; and false if not.
The documentation is updated to clarify.

To improve the changes that a pause request is quickly confirmed
effective, adjust things so that WaitForWALToBecomeAvailable will
swiftly reach a call to recoveryPausesHere() when a pause request
is made.

Request to pause recovery. A request doesn't mean that recovery stops
right away. If you want a guarantee that recovery is actually paused,
you need to check for the recovery pause state returned by
<function>pg_get_wal_replay_pause_state()</function>. Note that
<function>pg_is_wal_replay_paused()</function> returns whether a request
is made. While recovery is paused, no further database changes are applied.

snapshot of the database, and no further query conflicts will be generated
