I thought to keep the log_cnt value the same value as the publisher.
I have verified from the upgrade that we don't retain the log_cnt
value after upgrade, even if we copy log_cnt, the value will not be
retained. The attached
v20251006-0001-Enhance-pg_get_sequence_data-function.patch has the
changes to remove log_cnt.
