Michael Paquier 4545cee303 Forbid pg_get_multixact_stats() during recovery
MultiXactState->oldestOffset is not maintained during recovery, so
calling pg_get_multixact_stats() in this context would report misleading
information.  We could try to work this out by adding this field to the
control file, for example, but such a change would be too invasive at
this stage of the v19 development cycle.

The information of pg_get_multixact_stats() is usually useful to control
the need of some VACUUM or some freezing, operations that cannot happen
on a standby, so the argument to make the function work while recovery
is in progress gets thinner with this point in the balance.

The function is updated to return an ERROR when called under
RecoveryInProgress().

Per discussion with Heikki Linnakangas and Naga Appani.
