Remove redundant WAIT FOR LSN caller-side pre-checks

All five wakeup call sites duplicate WaitLSNWakeup()'s internal
fast-path minWaitedLSN check and add an unnecessary NULL check
on waitLSNState.

Remove the inline pre-checks and call WaitLSNWakeup() directly.
The fast-path check inside WaitLSNWakeup() already returns early
when no waiter's target has been reached, so there is no
performance difference.

The waitLSNState NULL checks are also unnecessary: shared memory
is fully initialized before any backend or auxiliary process
starts, so waitLSNState is always non-NULL at these call sites.
