The txid_XXX family of fmgr functions exposes 64 bit transaction IDs to
users as int8. Now that we have an SQL type xid8 for FullTransactionId,
define a new set of functions including pg_current_xact_id() and
pg_current_snapshot() based on that. Keep the old functions around too,
for now.
It's a bit sneaky to use the same C functions for both, but since the
binary representation is identical except for the signedness of the
type, and since older functions are the ones using the wrong signedness,
and since we'll presumably drop the older ones after a reasonable period
of time, it seems reasonable to switch to FullTransactionId internally
and share the code for both.

If your connection to the database server is lost while a COMMIT is
in progress, it may be difficult to figure out whether the COMMIT was
successful or not. This function will tell you, provided that you
don't wait too long to ask. It may be useful in other situations,
too.

Add a variant of txid_current() that returns NULL if no transaction ID
is assigned. This version can be used even on a standby server,
although it will always return NULL since no transaction IDs can be
assigned during recovery.

and by me.
The proc array can contain duplicate XIDs, when a transaction is just being
prepared for two-phase commit. To cope, remove any duplicates in
txid_current_snapshot(). Also ignore duplicates in the input functions, so
that if e.g. you have an old pg_dump file that already contains duplicates,
it will be accepted.
