I think we are going with the fix proposed for master [1] which
compares dead_after to OldestXmin before using GlobalVisState.
Backporting 1ccc1e05ae doesn't actually fix the problem. We just end
up erroring out when attempting to freeze the tuple we didn't remove.
As such, attached is my proposed fix for affected stable branches. It
is based off of the fix proposed in [1] but is a bit different in each
version due to surrounding code changes.
The test I added passes locally and on linux and windows in CI (on 15+
which have CI). I don't have enough cirrus credits to run the tests on
mac. I am nervous about the test flaking on the buildfarm. But I did
the best I could to try to make it stable. I think keeping it as a
separate commit should be easiest in case we have to revert it?
Thanks to Heikki for backporting BackgroundPsql -- this made my life
much easier!!
