I have reviewed and made a number of changes in the next patch which
extends the logical decoding output plugin API with stream methods.
(v41-0001-Extend-the-logical-decoding-output-plugin-API-wi).

1. I think we need handling of include_xids and include_timestamp but
not skip_empty_xacts in the new APIs, as of now, none of the options
were respected.  We need 'include_xids' handling because we need to
include xid with stream messages and similarly 'include_timestamp' for
stream commit messages.  OTOH, I think we never use streaming mode for
empty xacts, so we don't need to bother about skip_empty_xacts in
streaming APIs.
2. Then I made a number of changes in documentation, comments, and
other cosmetic changes.

Kindly review/test and let me know if you see any problems with the
above changes.
