Fix bogus when-to-deregister-from-listener-array logic.
Since a backend adds itself to the global listener array during Exec_ListenPreCommit, it's inappropriate for it to remove itself during Exec_UnlistenCommit or Exec_UnlistenAllCommit --- that leads to failure when committing a transaction that did UNLISTEN then LISTEN, since we end up not registered though we should be. (This leads to missing later notifications, or to Assert failures in assert-enabled builds.) Instead deal with deregistering at the bottom of AtCommit_Notify, when we know the final state of the listenChannels list. Also, simplify the representation of registration status by replacing the transient backendHasExecutedInitialListen flag with an amRegisteredListener flag. Per report from Greg Sabino Mullane. Back-patch to 9.0, where the problem was introduced during the LISTEN/NOTIFY rewrite.
