Maybe we can mark it so that it becomes obsolete in a future version,
#if PG_VERSION_NUM >= 210000
[[obsolete]]
#endif
XLogRecPtrIsInvalid( .. )
so that people using it today won't get any noise, but once they do get
the warning, the versions without the other macro are already out of
support, so they can switch to the new one easily. (This presupposes
that we'd add the new macro to older branches as well, which shouldn't
be a problem.) Only extensions wishing to support PG versions older
than we support would have to work slightly harder, but that should be OK.
