A flag to indicate that the tx is locally committed but hasn't been
confirmed by a streaming synchronous replica, so it must not become
visible until the replica confirms it or SR is disabled.

Then scan pg_clog on start / replica connect and ask the replica to
confirm local commit for those tx's.

No?
