The command is supported for physical slots for now, and returns the type of slot, its restart_lsn and its restart_tli. This will be useful for an upcoming patch related to pg_receivewal, to allow the tool to be able to stream from the position of a slot, rather than the last WAL position flushed by the backend (as reported by IDENTIFY_SYSTEM) if the archive directory is found as empty, which would be an advantage in the case of switching to a different archive locations with the same slot used to avoid holes in WAL segment archives.
