Subject: [PATCH] Update TransactionXmin when MyProc->xmin is updated

GetSnapshotData() set TransactionXmin = MyProc->xmin, but when
SnapshotResetXmin() advanced MyProc->xmin, it did not advance
TransactionXmin correspondingly. That meant that TransactionXmin could
be older than MyProc->xmin, and XIDs between than TransactionXmin and
the real MyProc->xmin could be vacuumed away. One known consequence is
in pg_subtrans lookups: we might try to look up the status of an XID
that was already truncated away.

Back-patch to all supported versions.
