Fix error with CREATE PUBLICATION, wal_level=minimal, and new tables.

nmisch · nmisch · commit 360bd2321b1a · 2021-01-30T00:11:38.000-08:00
CREATE PUBLICATION has failed spuriously when applied to a permanent relation created or rewritten in the current transaction. Make the same change to another site having the same semantic intent; the second instance has no user-visible consequences. Back-patch to v13, where commit c6b9204 broke this.
