Tom Lane b7103bbe34 Avoid direct C access to possibly-null pg_subscription_rel.srsublsn.
This coding technique is unsafe, since we'd be accessing off the end
of the tuple if the field is null.  SIGSEGV is pretty improbable, but
perhaps not impossible.  Also, returning garbage for the LSN doesn't
seem like a great idea, even if callers aren't looking at it today.

Also update docs to point out explicitly that
pg_subscription.subslotname and pg_subscription_rel.srsublsn
can be null.

Perhaps we should mark these two fields BKI_FORCE_NULL, so that
they'd be correctly labeled in databases that are initdb'd in the
future.  But we can't force that for existing databases, and on
balance it's not too clear that having a mix of different catalog
contents in the field would be wise.

Apply to v10 (where this code came in) through v12.  Already
fixed in v13 and HEAD.

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/.
