Okay, I see that in fetch_remote_sequence_data(), we are inserting
'last_value + log_cnt' fetched from remote as 'last_val' on subscriber
and thus leading to above behaviour. I did not understand why this is
done? This may result into issue when we insert data into a table with
identity column on subscriber (whose internal sequence is replicated);
the identity column in this case will end up having wrong value.
