Thanks for your patch. Here are some comments.
1.
I noticed that get_usable_indexoid() is called in apply_handle_update_internal()
and apply_handle_delete_internal() to get the usable index. Could usableIndexOid
be a parameter of these two functions? Because we have got the
LogicalRepRelMapEntry when calling them and if we do so, we can get
usableIndexOid without get_usable_indexoid(). Otherwise for partitioned tables,
logicalrep_partition_open() is called in get_usable_indexoid() and searching
the entry via hash_search() will increase cost.

The comment looks need to be updated:
SuitableIndexPathsForRepIdentFull
->
FindUsableIndexForReplicaIdentityFull
3.
/* Build scankey for every attribute in the index. */
- for (attoff = 0; attoff <
IndexRelationGetNumberOfKeyAttributes(idxrel); attoff++)
+ for (index_attoff = 0; index_attoff <
IndexRelationGetNumberOfKeyAttributes(idxrel);
+ index_attoff++)
{
Should the comment be changed? Because we skip the attributes that are
expressions.

Maybe we can call the new function idxIsRelationIdentityOrPK()?
