Some of the test_decoding regression tests are unstable due to modifying
a sequence. The first increment of a sequence after a checkpoint is
always logged (and thus decoded), which makes the output unpredictable.
The runs are usually much shorter than a checkpoint internal, so these
failures are rare, but we've seen a couple of them on animals that are
either slow or are running with valgrind/clobber cache/...
Fixed by skipping sequence decoding in most tests, with the exception of
the test aimed at testing decoding of sequences.

Commit 0da92dc530 improved the logical decoding infrastructure to handle
sequences, and did various changes to related parts (WAL logging etc.).
But it did not include any implementation of the new callbacks added to
OutputPluginCallbacks.
This extends test_decoding with two callbacks to decode sequences. The
decoding of sequences may be disabled using 'include-sequences', a new
option of the output plugin.

This commit adds a set of functions able to look at the contents of
various paths related to replication slots:
- pg_ls_logicalsnapdir, for pg_logical/snapshots/
- pg_ls_logicalmapdir, for pg_logical/mappings/
- pg_ls_replslotdir, for pg_replslot/<slot_name>/
These are intended to be used by monitoring tools. Unlike pg_ls_dir(),
execution permission can be granted to non-superusers. Roles members of
pg_monitor gain have access to those functions.
Bump catalog version.

Lack of these checks could cause visible misbehavior, including
assertion failures. This was missed in commit c655077639, whereby
restart_lsn becomes invalid when the size limit is exceeded.
Also reword some existing error messages, and add errdetail(), so that
the reported errors all match in spirit.

This allows the user to create duplicates of existing replication slots,
either logical or physical, and even changing properties such as whether
they are temporary or the output plugin used.
There are multiple uses for this, such as initializing multiple replicas
using the slot for one base backup; when doing investigation of logical
replication issues; and to select a different output plugins.

This was broken in commit 9c7d06d606, which inadvertently gave the
wrong value to fast_forward in one StartupDecodingContext call. Fix by
flipping the value. Add a test for the obvious error, namely trying to
initialize a replication slot with an nonexistent output plugin.
While at it, move the CreateDecodingContext call earlier, so that any
errors are reported before sending the CopyBoth message.

Such replication slots are physical slots freshly created without WAL
being reserved, which is the default behavior, which have not been used
yet as WAL consumption resources to retain WAL. This prevents advancing
a slot to a position older than any WAL available, which could falsify
calculations for WAL segment recycling.
This also cleans up a bit the code, as ReplicationSlotRelease() would be
called on ERROR, and improves error messages.

Ability to advance both physical and logical replication slots using a
new user function pg_replication_slot_advance().
For logical advance that means records are consumed as fast as possible
and changes are not given to output plugin for sending. Makes 2nd phase
(after we reached SNAPBUILD_FULL_SNAPSHOT) of replication slot creation
faster, especially when there are big transactions as the reorder buffer
does not have to deal with data changes and does not have to spill to
disk.

Fix the tests on slow machines (per buildfarm).
Add test for dropping on error. And also try to consume real changes
from temporary slots.
From: Petr Jelinek <petr.jelinek@2ndquadrant.com>
This test, just added in commit a924c327e, sometimes fails because
the old backend hasn't finished dropping the temporary replication slot
when the new backend looks. Borrow the previously-invented methodology
for waiting for the old process to disappear from pg_stat_activity.
