This patch provides a way to ensure that physical standbys that are potential failover candidates have received and flushed changes before the primary server making them visible to subscribers. Doing so guarantees that the promoted standby server is not lagging behind the subscribers when a failover is necessary. The logical walsender now guarantees that all local changes are sent and flushed to the standby servers corresponding to the replication slots specified in 'standby_slot_names' before sending those changes to the subscriber. Additionally, the SQL functions pg_logical_slot_get_changes, pg_logical_slot_peek_changes and pg_replication_slot_advance are modified to ensure that they process changes for failover slots only after physical slots specified in 'standby_slot_names' have confirmed WAL receipt for those.
