One minor comment:
Can we slightly change the comment: ". The ordering of the records
prior to the LSN, we should have been checked before the restart." to
". The ordering of the records prior to the start_decoding_at LSN
should have been checked before the restart."?

Commits

  1. Fix executing invalidation messages generated by subtransactions during decoding.

  2. Fix assertion failures while processing NEW_CID record in logical decoding.

  3. Immediately WAL-log subtransaction and top-level XID association.

  4. Stop demanding that top xact must be seen before subxact in decoding.
