Fix missing initializations of MyProc.delayChkptEnd

This commit fixes an oversight introduced in 10520f4, that has added
delayChkptEnd to PGPROC to avoid ABI breakages on stable branches, where
two spots have missed to initialize this variable (delayChkpt was
switched back from int to bool, and it was initialized as 0 so there was
no consequences for it):
- InitProcess(), where the per-process data structures of a backend are
initialized.
- InitAuxiliaryProcess(), same but for auxiliary processes.

An interruption during relation truncation while this flag is set could
cause an assertion failure when a follow-up process does a relation
truncation while reusing the same PGPROC entry.  A second effect could
be incorrect checkpoint end delays.

While on it, add an assertion in ProcArrayClearTransaction() for
delayChkptEnd to be in line with 5788e25.  This is needed only for v14.

This issue affects v11~v14, but not v15~, as we use a single field
called delayChkptFlags to delay checkpoints there.
