OK, I agree to remove the origin string on HEAD and we can add that back
when we support other origin value. I also modified to use the string for 
comparison
as suggested for back-branch. I will also test it locally to confirm it doesn't 
affect

Added one in replorigin.sql.

Attach the patch set for publish_no_origin and in_streaming including the
patch(v2-PG16-0001) for back-branches. Since the patch for hash table need
more thoughts, I didn't post it this time.
