Thanks for the review!

As far as I understand, if the publisher prepares a transaction and
then subscriber
tries to create a subscription, walsender will wait until the prepared
transaction is
finished (during execution of  CREATE_REPLICATION_SLOT command).
We can find this logic inside the SnapBuildFindSnapshot function. Thus, we
cannot miss any PREPARE record for the created slot.

Am I missing something?
