Avoid acquiring spinlock when checking if recovery has finished, for speed.
RecoveryIsInProgress() can be called very frequently. During normal operation, it just checks a backend-local variable and returns quickly, but during hot standby, it checks a spinlock-protected shared variable. Those spinlock acquisitions can become a point of contention on a busy hot standby system. Replace the spinlock acquisition with a memory barrier. Per discussion with Andres Freund, Ants Aasma and Merlin Moncure.
