This patch essentially moveѕ the call to
process_session_preload_libraries() to earlier in PostgresMain(). The
discussion upthread seems to indicate that this is okay. I did notice that
the log_disconnections handler won't be set up yet, so failures due to
session_preload_libraries won't be logged the same way as before. Also,
the call to pgstat_report_connect() won't happen. Neither of these strikes
me as particularly bad, but it seemed worth noting.

nitpick: Should we call out local_preload_libraries here, too?

I noticed that a couple of places check whether whereToSendOutput is set to
DestRemote to determine if this is an interactive session. Maybe something
like
if (whereToSendOutput == DestRemote && !am_walsender)
would be a reasonably future-proof way to avoid the need for a new
InitPostgres() argument.
Otherwise, the patch looks good to me.
