Modify the document of Logical Replication configuration settings

Hi, hackers The attached patch includes below two changes for the description of Logical Replication "Configuration Settings". 1. Add one brief description about wal_sender_timeout. I made it similar to one other sentence for subscriber. 2. Fix a wrong GUC name "wal_receiver_retry_interval". I think this doesn't seem to exist and would mean "wal_retrieve_retry_interval". Kindly have a look at it. Best Regards, Takamichi Osumi

Adding something like [1] in wal_sender_timeout GUC's description might be a good idea just to give specific information that the logical replication subscribers too get affected. Perhaps, it's not required since the postgres glossary wraps logical replication subscriber under standby anyway - https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/glossary.html. To me personally, the typical notion of standby is the one connected to primary via streaming replication. > 2.

Perhaps we could do that, I am not sure whether this brings much in this section, though. -- Michael

This might increase comprehensiveness of the doc slightly. If we want to do this, it might be better to add this kind of additions to other parameters such as wal_receiver_timeout, wal_retrieve_retry_interval and wal_receiver_status_interval, too. BTH, thank you for having taken care of my patch, Michael-san! Best Regards, Takamichi Osumi
