Fix unstable test in 040_pg_createsubscriber.

The slot synchronization failed because the local slot's (created during
slot synchronization) catalog_xmin on standby is ahead of remote slot.
This happens because the INSERT before slot synchronization results in the
generation of a new xid that could be replicated to the standby. Now
before the xmin of the physical slot on the primary catches up via
hot_standby_feedback, the test has created a logical slot that got some
prior value of catalog_xmin.

To fix this we could try to ensure that the physical slot's catalog_xmin
is caught up to latest value before creating a logical slot but we took a
simpler path to move the INSERT after synchronizing the logical slot.
