No. We can implement savepoints on top of subtransactions, but not
vice versa. AFAICS the savepoint syntax is just a shorthand for
a constrained form of subtransaction --- essentially one where you
can't explicitly commit a subtransaction, it's implicitly committed
when you commit the parent. I don't see anything but syntactic
sugar here ...
