So, we don't carry WAL from the old cluster to the new cluster, so if
the WAL is changed and had duplicates, it would only be new WAL records.
pg_upgrade seems immune to must of this, and that is by design.
However, I am hesitant to change the heap/index page format for
encryption because if we add fields, old pages might not fit as
encrypted pages, and then you have to move rows around, and things
become _much_ more complicated.
I don't see any other pg_upgrade issues, unless someone else does. Oh,
we will have to check pg_control for a matching encryption format.
