WAL senders do not flush their statistics until they exit, limiting the monitoring possible for live processes. This is penalizing when WAL senders are running for a long time, like in streaming or logical replication setups, because it is not possible to know the amount of IO they generate while running. This commit makes WAL senders more aggressive with their statistics flush, using an internal of 1 second, with the flush timing calculated based on the existing GetCurrentTimestamp() done before the sleeps done to wait for some activity. Note that the sleep done for logical and physical WAL senders happens in two different code paths, so the stats flushes need to happen in these two places. One test is added for the physical WAL sender case, and one for the logical WAL sender case. This can be done in a stable fashion by relying on the WAL generated by the TAP tests in combination with a stats reset while a server is running, but only on HEAD as WAL data has been added to pg_stat_io in a051e71e28a1. This issue exists since a9c70b46dbe and the introduction of pg_stat_io, so backpatch down to v16.
