I have modified the patch, changes
- I have added a new interface pg_get_wal_replay_pause_state to get
the pause request state
- Now, we are not waiting for the recovery to actually get paused so I
think it doesn't make sense to put a lot of checkpoints to check the
pause requested so I have removed that check from the
recoveryApplyDelay but I think it better we still keep that check in
the WaitForWalToBecomeAvailable because it can wait forever before the
next wal get available.
