On thinking about this point again, it is not clear to me why that
would matter for this particular use case? Basically, when you create
a new subscription, it should copy the entire existing data from the
table directly and then will decode changes from WAL. So, I think in
your case all the changes between pg_upgrade and now should be
directly copied from tables, so probably older WAL won't be required.
