init_params() sets up "last_value" and "is_called" for a sequence relation holdind its metadata, based on the sequence properties in pg_sequences. "log_cnt" is the third property that can be updated in this routine for FormData_pg_sequence_data, tracking when WAL records should be generated for a sequence after nextval() iterations. This routine is called when creating or altering a sequence. This commit refactors init_params() to not depend anymore on FormData_pg_sequence_data, removing traces of it in sequence.c, making easier the manipulation of metadata related to sequences. The knowledge about "log_cnt" is replaced with a more general "reset_state" flag, to let the caller know if the sequence state should be reset. In the case of in-core sequences, this relates to WAL logging. We still need to depend on FormData_pg_sequence.
