Fix "missing continuation record" after standby promotion

Invalidate abortedRecPtr and missingContrecPtr after a missing
continuation record is successfully skipped on a standby. This fixes a
PANIC caused when a recently promoted standby attempts to write an
OVERWRITE_RECORD with an LSN of the previously read aborted record.

Backpatch to 10 (all stable versions).
