It was made to avoid WAL-loging on each nextval call, ie it should work
like OID pre-fetching: value stored in WAL must always "exceed" values
returned by nextval so on the after-crash-restart sequence should be
advanced to value which was never returned by nextval (for non-cycled
sequences). Maybe I made some mistakes in implementation?
