I'm not sure if it has anything to do with the relation sync cache.
On the other hand, moving all the content of init_rel_sync_cache() up
to pgoutput_startup() doesn't seem like a good idea.. Another option,
as you see, was to separate callback registration code.

Unfortunately, RelationSyncCache doesn't work - it is set to NULL at
plugin shutdown.
