This commit does two things: 1) Maintains inactive_since for sync slots whenever the slot is released just like any other regular slot. 2) Ensures the value is set to the current timestamp during the promotion of standby to help correctly interpret the time after promotion. We don't want the slots to appear inactive for a long time after promotion if they haven't been synchronized recently. This would also avoid the invalidation of such slots immediately after promotion if tomorrow we have a feature that invalidates slots based on their inactivity time. Whoever acquires the slot i.e. makes the slot active will reset it to NULL.
