Improve errdetail for logical replication conflict messages.

This change enhances the clarity and usefulness of error detail messages
generated during logical replication conflicts. The following improvements
have been made:

1. Eliminate redundant output: Avoid printing duplicate remote row and
replica identity values for the multiple_unique_conflicts conflict type.
2. Improve message structure: Append tuple values directly to the main
error message, separated by a colon (:), for better readability.
3. Simplify local row terminology: Remove the word 'existing' when
referring to the local row, as this is already implied by context.
4. General code refinements: Apply miscellaneous code cleanups to improve
how conflict detail messages are constructed and formatted.
