So IIUC, we need to keep 'output_plugin_private' in
LogicalDecodingContext as well as in ReorderBufferTxn, So the
output_plugin_private in the ReorderBufferTxn will currently just keep
one flag xact_wrote_changes and the remaining things will still be
maintained in output_plugin_private of the LogicalDecodingContext. Is
my understanding correct?
