Protect against XLogReaderAllocate() failing to allocate memory.

Browse Source 
logical.c's StartupDecodingContext() forgot to check whether
XLogReaderAllocate() returns NULL indicating a memory allocation
failure.  This could lead, although quite unlikely, lead to a NULL
pointer dereference.

This only applies to 9.4 as earlier versions don't do logical
decoding, and later versions don't return NULL after allocation
failures in XLogReaderAllocate().

Michael Paquier, with minor changes by me.
