Subject: [PATCH] Fix off-by-one error in txid_status().

The transaction ID returned by GetNextXidAndEpoch() is in the future,
so we can't attempt to access its status or we might try to read a
CLOG page that doesn't exist.  The > vs >= confusion probably stemmed
from the choice of a variable name containing the word "last" instead
of "next", so fix that too.

Back-patch to 10 where the function arrived.
