Thanks for updating the patches.
A few comments about v58-0001 and v58-0002.

v58-0001
1.
How about modifying the following loop in copy_table by using for_each_from
instead of foreach?
Like the invocation of for_each_from in function get_rule_expr.
from:
		if (qual != NIL)
		{
			ListCell   *lc;
			bool		first = true;

			appendStringInfoString(&cmd, " WHERE ");
			foreach(lc, qual)
			{
				char	   *q = strVal(lfirst(lc));

				if (first)
					first = false;
				else
					appendStringInfoString(&cmd, " OR ");
				appendStringInfoString(&cmd, q);
			}
			list_free_deep(qual);
		}
change to:
		if (qual != NIL)
		{
			ListCell   *lc;
			char	   *q = strVal(linitial(qual));

			appendStringInfo(&cmd, " WHERE %s", q);
			for_each_from(lc, qual, 1)
			{
				q = strVal(lfirst(lc));
				appendStringInfo(&cmd, " OR %s", q);
			}
			list_free_deep(qual);
		}

I find the API of get_rel_sync_entry is modified. 
-get_rel_sync_entry(PGOutputData *data, Oid relid)
+get_rel_sync_entry(PGOutputData *data, Relation relation)
It looks like just moving the invocation of RelationGetRelid from outside into
function get_rel_sync_entry. I am not sure whether this modification is
necessary to this feature or not.

v58-0002
1.
In function pgoutput_row_filter_init, if no_filter is set, I think we do not
need to add row filter to list(rfnodes).
So how about changing three conditions when add row filter to rfnodes like this:
-					if (pub->pubactions.pubinsert)
+					if (pub->pubactions.pubinsert && !no_filter[idx_ins])
					{
						rfnode = stringToNode(TextDatumGetCString(rfdatum));
						rfnodes[idx_ins] = lappend(rfnodes[idx_ins], rfnode);
					}
