Dear Amit, Euler,

Thanks for giving comment! 0001 was modified per suggestions.

I also think it should be tunable, in PG18+. 0002 adds a description in doc.
Also, this executable warns if the max_prepared_transactions != 0 on the
publisher. Subscriber-side is not checked now because I don't think it is helpful,
but it can be easily added. I did not add test for that, because current test code
does not check outputs.
