Correct logical decoding status at end of recovery with minimal WAL level.

Crash recovery running with wal_level='minimal' can replay an
XLOG_LOGICAL_DECODING_STATUS_CHANGE record that activates logical
decoding, if the server previously ran with a higher wal_level and
crashed after the last logical slot was dropped but before the
checkpointer deactivated logical decoding. Replaying such a record is
correct since it reflects the status at the time it was
written. However, UpdateLogicalDecodingStatusEndOfRecovery() asserted
that logical decoding is never active with wal_level='minimal',
causing an assertion failure at the end of recovery. In production
builds, logical decoding would remain active while running with
wal_level='minimal'.

Instead of special-casing wal_level='minimal', recompute the status at
the end of recovery as usual: no logical slot can exist with
wal_level='minimal' as RestoreSlotFromDisk() would have rejected it,
so the recomputation always deactivates logical decoding in this case,
also writing the corresponding status change record.
