Ignore nextOid when replaying an ONLINE checkpoint.
The nextOid value is from the start of the checkpoint and may well be stale compared to values from more recent XLOG_NEXTOID records. Previously, we adopted it anyway, allowing the OID counter to go backwards during a crash. While this should be harmless, it contributed to the severity of the bug fixed in commit 0408e1e, by allowing duplicate TOAST OIDs to be assigned immediately following a crash. Without this error, that issue would only have arisen when TOAST objects just younger than a multiple of 2^32 OIDs were deleted and then not vacuumed in time to avoid a conflict.
