Enhance slot synchronization API to respect promotion signal.
Previously, during a promotion, only the slot synchronization worker was
signaled to shut down. The backend executing slot synchronization via the
pg_sync_replication_slots() SQL function was not signaled, allowing it to
complete its synchronization cycle before exiting.
An upcoming patch improves pg_sync_replication_slots() to wait until
replication slots are fully persisted before finishing. This behaviour
requires the backend to exit promptly if a promotion occurs.
This patch ensures that, during promotion, a signal is also sent to the
backend running pg_sync_replication_slots(), allowing it to be interrupted
and exit immediately.
