If a commit or abort record includes "dropped relfilenodes", then replaying the record will remove data files. That is surely a "special rel update", but the records were not marked as such. Fix that, teach pg_rewind to expect and ignore them, and add a test case to cover it. It's always been like this, but no backporting for fear of breaking existing applications. If an application parsed the WAL but was not handling commit/abort records, it would stop working. That might be a good thing if it really needed to handle the dropped rels, but it will be caught when the application is updated to work with PostgreSQL v14 anyway.
