Avoid SnapshotResetXmin() during AtEOXact_Snapshot()

For normal commits and aborts we already reset PgXact->xmin,
so we can simply avoid running SnapshotResetXmin() twice.

During performance tests by Alexander Korotkov, diagnosis
by Andres Freund showed PgXact array as a bottleneck. After
manual analysis by me of the code paths that touch those
memory locations, I was able to identify extraneous code
in the main transaction commit path.

Avoiding touching highly contented shmem improves concurrent
performance slightly on all workloads, confirmed by tests
run by Ashutosh Sharma and Alexander Korotkov.
