Don't retreat slot's confirmed_flush LSN.

Prevent moving the confirmed_flush backwards, as this could lead to data
duplication issues caused by replicating already replicated changes.

This can happen when a client acknowledges an LSN it doesn't have to do
anything for, and thus didn't store persistently. After a restart, the
client can send the prior LSN that it stored persistently as an
acknowledgement, but we need to ignore such an LSN to avoid retreating
confirm_flush LSN.
