Log messages for replication slot acquisition and release.
This commit log messages (at LOG level when log_replication_commands is
set, otherwise at DEBUG1 level) when walsenders acquire and release
replication slots. These messages help to know the lifetime of a
replication slot - one can know how long a streaming standby, logical
subscriber, or replication slot consumer is down. These messages will be
useful on production servers to debug and analyze inactive replication
slots.
Note that these messages are emitted only for walsenders but not for
backends. This is because walsenders are the ones that typically hold
replication slots for longer durations, unlike backends which hold them
for executing replication related functions.
