Event triggers? Isn't this about RegisterXactCallback?

XACT_EVENT_COMMIT is called after the commit record has been flushed and the
procarray has been modified. Thus a failure in the hook has somewhat limited
consequences. I'd assume XACT_EVENT_COMMIT_PREPARED would do something
similar.

I suspect the reason we don't callback for 2pc commit/rollback prepared is
simpl: The code for doing a 2pc commit prepared lives in twophase.c, not
xact.c...
