(I've no comments for 006)
patch-004:
5) The new fetch_sequence_list() function should be guarded with version checks.
Without this, CREATE SUBSCRIPTION will always fail when a newer
subscriber (>=PG19) attempts to create a subscription to an older
publisher (<PG19).
e.g., pub1 is a publication on without-patch node, with only tables in it.
postgres=# create subscription sub_oldpub connection 'dbname=postgres
host=localhost port=8841' publication pub1;
ERROR: could not receive list of sequences from the publisher: ERROR:
relation "pg_catalog.pg_publication_sequences" does not exist
LINE 2: FROM pg_catalog.pg_publication_sequences ...

I feel the above comment could be reworded slightly for better clarity.
Suggestion:

+ walrcv_connect(MySubscription->conninfo, true, true,
+ must_use_password,
+ app_name.data, &err);
+ if (LogRepWorkerWalRcvConn == NULL)
+ ereport(ERROR,

+ errmsg("could not connect to the publisher: %s", err));
The error message should mention the specific process or worker that
failed to connect, similar to how it's done for other workers like
slotsync or tablesync.
Suggestion:
errmsg("sequencesync worker for subscription \"%s\" could not connect
to the publisher: %s", MySubscription->name, err));

+ copy_sequences(LogRepWorkerWalRcvConn, remotesequences, subid);

+ list_free_deep(sequences_not_synced);
Should we also free the 'remotesequences' list here?
