The patches can be reordered so that we are still able to deliver SLRU
refactoring in PG15.

Regarding the casts, I don't like them either. I agree that it could
be a good idea to invest a little more time into figuring out if this
transit can be handled in a better way and deliver this change in the
next CF. However, if no one will be able to suggest a better
alternative, I think we should continue making progress here. The
32-bit XIDs are a major inconvenience for many users.
