Yeah, v2 attached changes this. It moves the injection point after the process
has been killed so that another process can decode at wish (without the need
to wait for a walsender timeout) to reach LogicalConfirmReceivedLocation().

I try to simulate a revert of 818fefd8fd (replacing "!terminated" by "1 == 1"
before the initial_* assignements). The issue is that then the new ASSERT is
triggered leading to the standby shutdown. So, I'm not sure how to improve this
case.

Yeah, now that wait_for_event() is there, let's use it: done in v2.

Done in v2.
