By Initializing this flag out of the for(;;) loop once, this could put
more control into the checkpointer logic so as no new restart points
can be generated after the end-of-recovery checkpoint. This way we
could replace the hack looking for DB_IN_ARCHIVE_RECOVERY in
CreateRestartPoint() by an error handling.
