Adjust walsender usage of xlogreader, simplify APIs
* Have both physical and logical walsender share a 'xlogreader' state
  struct for tracking state.  This replaces the existing globals sendSeg
  and sendCxt.

* Change WALRead not to receive XLogReaderState->seg and ->segcxt as
  separate arguments anymore; just use the ones from 'state'.  This is
  made possible by the above change.

* have the XLogReader segment_open contract require the callbacks to
  install the file descriptor in the state struct themselves instead of
  returning it.  xlogreader was already ignoring any possible failed
  return from the callbacks, relying solely on them never returning.

  (This point is not altogether excellent, as it means the callbacks
  have to know more of XLogReaderState; but to really improve on that
  we would have to pass back error info from the callbacks to
  xlogreader.  And the complexity would not be saved but instead just
  transferred to the callers of WALRead, which would have to learn how
  to throw errors from the open_segment callback in addition of, as
  currently, from pg_pread.)

* segment_open no longer receives the 'segcxt' as a separate argument,
  since it's part of the XLogReaderState argument.

Per comments from Kyotaro Horiguchi.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
