databases/pg_failover_slots: New port

pg_failover_slots copies logical replication slots from a primary to its
physical standbys, so logical replication consumers can carry on after a
failover instead of losing their slot. Load it with shared_preload_libraries
on the primary and on every standby. CloudNativePG uses it for replica
clusters.
