Backport from #13201
Add distributed snapshot support to pg_export_snapshot
pg_export_snapshot now exports distributed snapshot metadata, enabling cluster-wide data visibility consistency via
SET TRANSACTION SNAPSHOT
Calling
select pg_export_snapshot()
from the QD will write thefollowing fields to the snapshot file in
pg_snapshots
in thecoordinator data directory.
When a snapshot is imported via SET TRANSACTION SNAPSHOT from the QD, subsequent
queries will have the distributed snapshot metadata dispatched to the QEs.
