Subject: [PATCH v53 4/5] Retry to apply streaming xact only in apply worker

When the subscription parameter is set streaming=parallel, the logic tries to
apply the streaming transaction using a parallel apply worker. If this
fails the parallel worker exits with an error.

In this case, retry applying the streaming transaction using the normal
streaming=on mode. This is done to avoid getting caught in a loop of the same
retry errors.

A new flag field "subretry" has been introduced to catalog "pg_subscription".
If there are any active parallel apply workers and the subscriber exits with an
error, this flag will be set true, and whenever the transaction is applied
successfully, this flag is reset false.
Now, when deciding how to apply a streaming transaction, the logic can know if
this transaction has previously failed or not (by checking the "subretry"
field).
