GetWALRecordsInfo() and pg_get_wal_fpi_info() can leak memory across WAL record iterations. Fix this by using a temporary memory context that's reset for each WAL record iteraion. Also a use temporary context for loops in GetXLogSummaryStats(). The number of iterations is a small constant, so the previous behavior was not a leak, but fix for clarity (but no need to backport). Backport GetWALRecordsInfo() change to version 15. pg_get_wal_fpi_info() didn't exist in version 15.

The PostgreSQL contrib tree
---------------------------
This subtree contains porting tools, analysis utilities, and plug-in
features that are not part of the core PostgreSQL system, mainly
because they address a limited audience or are too experimental to be
part of the main source tree. This does not preclude their
usefulness.
User documentation for each module appears in the main SGML
documentation.
When building from the source distribution, these modules are not
built automatically, unless you build the "world" target. You can
also build and install them all by running "make all" and "make
install" in this directory; or to build and install just one selected
module, do the same in that module's subdirectory.
Some directories supply new user-defined functions, operators, or
types. To make use of one of these modules, after you have installed
the code you need to register the new SQL objects in the database
system by executing a CREATE EXTENSION command. In a fresh database,
you can simply do
CREATE EXTENSION module_name;
See the PostgreSQL documentation for more information about this
procedure.
