Thanks.  This looks pretty reasonable to me, and I don't think we need
to worry about the subxid list for now.  Here's a version I ran though
pgindent to fix some whitespace problems.

The pg_prepared_xacts view seems like as good a place as any to start
showing FullTransactionId values to users.  Here's an experimental
patch on top to do that, introducing a new "xid8" type.  After
pg_resetwal -e 1000000000 -D pgdata you can make transactions that
look like this:

postgres=# select transaction, gid from pg_prepared_xacts ;
     transaction     | gid
---------------------+-----
 4294967296000000496 | tx1
(1 row)
