I'm attaching 0002 patch (on top of v45) which implements the new
decodable callback approach that I have in mind. IMO, this new
approach is extensible, better than the current approach (hard-coding
of certain WAL records that may be generated during pg_upgrade) taken
by the patch, and helps deal with the issue that custom WAL resource
managers can have with the current approach taken by the patch.

Neither the current patch as-is. I'm not looking at backporting this
feature right now, but making it as robust and extensible as possible
for PG17.

Thoughts?
