I have one comment on the detaching error queue part:

+       /*
+        * Detach from the error_mq_handle for the parallel apply worker before
+        * stopping it. This prevents the leader apply worker from trying to
+        * receive the message from the error queue that might already
be detached
+        * by the parallel apply worker.
+        */
+       shm_mq_detach(winfo->error_mq_handle);
+       winfo->error_mq_handle = NULL;

In pa_detach_all_error_mq(), we try to detach error queues of all
workers in the pool. I think we should check if the queue is already
detached (i.e. is NULL) there. Otherwise, we will end up a SEGV if an
error happens after detaching the error queue and before removing the
worker from the pool.
