Fix COMMIT/ROLLBACK AND CHAIN in the presence of subtransactions.
In older branches, COMMIT/ROLLBACK AND CHAIN failed to propagate the current transaction's properties to the new transaction if there was any open subtransaction (unreleased savepoint). Instead, some previous transaction's properties would be restored. This is because the "if (s->chain)" check in CommitTransactionCommand examined the wrong instance of the "chain" flag and falsely concluded that it didn't need to save transaction properties. Our regression tests would have noticed this, except they used identical transaction properties for multiple tests in a row, so that the faulty behavior was not distinguishable from correct behavior. Commit 12d768e fixed the problem in v15 and later, but only rather accidentally, because I removed the "if (s->chain)" test to avoid a compiler warning, while not realizing that the warning was flagging a real bug. In v14 and before, remove the if-test and save transaction properties unconditionally; just as in the newer branches, that's not expensive enough to justify thinking harder. Add the comment and extra regression test to v15 and later to forestall any future recurrence, but there's no live bug in those branches. Patch by me, per bug #18118 from Liu Xiang. Back-patch to v12 where the AND CHAIN feature was added. Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/18118-4b72fcbb903aace6@postgresql.org
