If we do ALTER SUBSCRIPTION SET PUBLICATION during executing table
sync then it forcibly stops concurrently running table sync worker for
a table that had been removed from pg_subscription_rel. Then if we
rollback the transaction then these table sync worker start again from
the first. it's an rarely situation and not a damaging behavior but
what I expected is the table sync worker is stopped when the
refreshing transaction is committed.
