Thought of using it, but, at the expense of readability. I prefer to
use a variable instead. However, I changed the variable to be more
meaningful to is_slot_being_synced.

Ugh. Changed.

Thanks. I'm attaching v29 patches. 0001 managing inactive_since on the
standby for sync slots. 0002 implementing inactive timeout GUC based

Please have a look.
