Avoid counting transaction stats for parallel worker cooperating
transaction.

The transaction that is initiated by the parallel worker to cooperate
with the actual transaction started by the main backend to complete the
query execution should not be counted as a separate transaction.  The
other internal transactions started and committed by the parallel worker
are still counted as separate transactions as we that is what we do in
other places like autovacuum.

This will partially fix the bloat in transaction stats due to additional
transactions performed by parallel workers.  For a complete fix, we need to
decide how we want to show all the transactions that are started internally
for various operations and that is a matter of separate patch.
