With this patch It looks like InitProcess will trigger the generic error about 'too many clients' before the more
specificerror message in InitWalSenderSlot when exceeding the number of max_wal_senders.
Does excluding WAL senders from the max_connections limit and including max_wal_senders in MaxBackends also imply that
weneed to add max_wal_senders to the list at xlog.c: CheckRequiredParameterValues, requiring its value on the replica
tobe not lower than the one on the primary?
