Amit Kapila 05555f7aaa Stop demanding that top xact must be seen before subxact in decoding.
Manifested as

ERROR:  subtransaction logged without previous top-level txn record

this check forbids legit behaviours like
 - First xl_xact_assignment record is beyond reading, i.e. earlier
   restart_lsn.
 - After restart_lsn there is some change of a subxact.
 - After that, there is second xl_xact_assignment (for another subxact)
   revealing the relationship between top and first subxact.

Such a transaction won't be streamed anyway because we hadn't seen it in
full.  Saying for sure whether xact of some record encountered after
the snapshot was deserialized can be streamed or not requires to know
whether it wrote something before deserialization point --if yes, it
hasn't been seen in full and can't be decoded. Snapshot doesn't have such
info, so there is no easy way to relax the check.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------

This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree.  This does not preclude their
usefulness.

User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.

When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target.  You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.

Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types.  To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command.  In a fresh database,
you can simply do

    CREATE EXTENSION module_name;

See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
