Fix DROP SUBSCRIPTION hang When ALTER SUBSCRIPTION DISABLE is run in the same transaction before DROP SUBSCRIPTION, the latter will hang because workers will still be running, not having seen the DISABLE committed, and DROP SUBSCRIPTION will wait until the workers have vacated the replication origin slots.
Previously, DROP SUBSCRIPTION killed the logical replication workers immediately only if it was going to drop the replication slot, otherwise it scheduled the worker killing for the end of the transaction, as a result of 7e174fa793a2df89fe03d002a5087ef67abcdde8. This, however, causes the present problem. To fix, kill the workers immediately in all cases. This covers all cases: A subscription that doesn't have a replication slot must be disabled. It was either disabled in the same transaction, or it was already disabled before the current transaction, but then there shouldn't be any workers left and this won't make a difference.
