Andres Freund 89fd41b390 Fix and improve cache invalidation logic for logical decoding.
There are basically three situations in which logical decoding needs
to perform cache invalidation. During/After replaying a transaction
with catalog changes, when skipping a uninteresting transaction that
performed catalog changes and when erroring out while replaying a
transaction. Unfortunately these three cases were all done slightly
differently - partially because 8de3e410fa, which greatly simplifies
matters, got committed in the midst of the development of logical
decoding.

The actually problematic case was when logical decoding skipped
transaction commits (and thus processed invalidations). When used via
the SQL interface cache invalidation could access the catalog - bad,
because we didn't set up enough state to allow that correctly. It'd
not be hard to setup sufficient state, but the simpler solution is to
always perform cache invalidation outside a valid transaction.

Also make the different cache invalidation cases look as similar as
possible, to ease code review.

This fixes the assertion failure reported by Antonin Houska in
53EE02D9.7040702@gmail.com. The presented testcase has been expanded
into a regression test.

Backpatch to 9.4, where logical decoding was introduced.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------

This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree.  This does not preclude their
usefulness.

User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.

When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target.  You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.

Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types.  To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command.  In a fresh database,
you can simply do

    CREATE EXTENSION module_name;

See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
