Fix race condition in TransactionGroupUpdateXidStatus().
When we cannot immediately acquire XactSLRULock in exclusive mode at
commit time, we add ourselves to a list of processes that need their XIDs
status update. We do this if the clog page where we need to update the
current transaction status is the same as the group leader's clog page,
otherwise, we allow the caller to clear it by itself. Now, when we can't
add ourselves to any group, we were not clearing the current proc if it
has already become a member of some group which was leading to an
assertion failure when the same proc was assigned to another backend after
the current backend exits.
