I think this should be documented at "Shutting Down the Server" section in runtime.sgml
or logical-replicaiton.sgml, but I cannot find. It will be included in next version.

I have not done yet about it, will continue next year.
It seems that walsenders have been sending all data before shutting down since ea5516,
e0b581 and 754baa.
There were many threads related with streaming replication, so I could not pin
the specific message that written in the commit message of ea5516.
I have also checked some wiki pages [1][2], but I could not find any design about it.
