Thanks a lot for the testing!

Looking at recovery-15-vacuum_pg_class/i035_standby_logical_decoding_standby.log here:
Yeah, the missing message has to come from InvalidatePossiblyObsoleteSlot().
In case of an active slot we first call ReportSlotInvalidation with the second
parameter set to true (to emit the "terminating" message), then SIGTERM the active
process and then (later) we should call the other ReportSlotInvalidation()
call with the second parameter set to false (to emit the message that we don't
see here).
So it means InvalidatePossiblyObsoleteSlot() did not trigger the second ReportSlotInvalidation()
call.
The thing it that it looks like we exited the loop in InvalidatePossiblyObsoleteSlot()
because there is more messages from the startup process (789618) after the:
"
2024-01-10 11:00:29.109 UTC [789618] LOG: terminating process 790377 to release replication slot
"row_removal_activeslot"
"
one.
Do you think you could try to add more debug messages in InvalidatePossiblyObsoleteSlot()
to understand why the second call to ReportSlotInvalidation() is not done and IIUC
why/how we exited the loop?
FWIW, I did try to reproduce by launching pg_recvlogical and then kill -SIGSTOP
it. Then producing a conflict, I'm able to get the first message and not the second
one (which is expected). But the startup process does not exit the loop, which is
expected here.
