Add single-item cache when looking at topmost XID of a subtrans XID

This change affects SubTransGetTopmostTransaction(), used to find the
topmost transaction ID of a given transaction ID.  The cache is able to
store one value, so as we can save the backend from unnecessary lookups
at pg_subtrans/ on repetitive calls of this routine.  There is a similar
practice in transam.c, for example.
