Fix assertion failure in snapshot building

Clear any potential stale next_phase_at value from the snapshot
builder which otherwise may trip an assertion check ensuring
that there is no next_phase_at value.

This can be reproduced by running 80 concurrent sessions like
the below where $c is a loop counter (assumes there has been
1..$c databases created) :

echo "
CREATE TABLE replication_example(id SERIAL PRIMARY KEY,
somedata int,
text varchar(120));
SELECT 'init' FROM
pg_create_logical_replication_slot('regression_slot_$c',
'test_decoding');
SELECT data FROM
pg_logical_slot_get_changes('regression_slot_$c', NULL,
NULL, 'include-xids', '0',
'skip-empty-xacts', '1');
" | psql -d regress_$c >>psql.log &

This was originally committed as 48efb23 and backpatched down to
v16, but since then there have been reports of this happening on
v14 and v15 as well so this is a backpatch of 48efb23 down to 14.
