Add assertion check for WAL receiver state during stream-archive transition

When the startup process switches from streaming to archive as WAL
source, we avoid calling ShutdownWalRcv() if the WAL receiver is not
streaming, based on WalRcvStreaming().  WALRCV_STOPPING is a state set
by ShutdownWalRcv(), called only by the startup process, meaning that it
should not be possible to reach this state while in
WaitForWALToBecomeAvailable().

This commit adds an assertion to make sure that a WAL receiver is never
in a WALRCV_STOPPING state should the startup process attempt to reset
InstallXLogFileSegmentActive.

Idea suggested by Noah Misch.
