Use Enum for top level logical replication message types.

Logical replication protocol uses a single byte character to identify a
message type in logical replication protocol. The code uses string
literals for the same. Use Enum so that

1. All the string literals used can be found at a single place. This
makes it easy to add more types without the risk of conflicts.

2. It's easy to locate the code handling a given message type.

3. When used with switch statements, it is easy to identify the missing
cases using -Wswitch.
