The previous isolation tests did not account for the possibility that
the background writer or the checkpointer could write a RUNNING_XACTS
record, which could cause logical decoding to produce more logical
snapshots than expected.
This commit modifies the isolation tests to verify that at least one
logical snapshot contains the expected number of committed or ongoing
catalog-change transactions.

This module provides SQL functions that allow to inspect logical
decoding components.
It currently allows to inspect the contents of serialized logical
snapshots of a running database cluster, which is useful for debugging
or educational purposes.
