I think we could do the catalog change too, so that future initdb's are marked
correctly. But we obviously do need the code-level check nevertheless.

FWIW, I have a test for both, I was a bit "stuck" on where to put the
pg_stat_get_subscription_stats(NULL) test. I had put the
pg_stat_get_replication_slot(NULL) in contrib/test_decoding/sql/stats.sql
but pg_stat_get_subscription_stats() doesn't really fit there. I think I'm
coming down to putting a section of such tests into src/test/regress/sql/stats.sql
instead. In the hope of preventing future such occurrances by encouraging
people to copy the test...
