To me that seems either fragile or annoying to use. If all backends call
LWLockNewTrancheId() we need to a be sure the callbacks are always going
to be called in the same order. Otherwise everyone needs to store the
tranche in shared memory (like xlog.c now does) which I find to be a
rather annoying requirement.
