Properly remove ephemeral replication slots after a crash restart.
Ephemeral slots - slots that shouldn't survive database restarts - weren't properly cleaned up after a immediate/crash restart. They were ignored in the sense that they weren't restored into memory and thus didn't cause unwanted resource retention; but they prevented a new slot with the same name from being created. Now ephemeral slots are fully removed during startup. Backpatch to 9.4 where replication slots where added.
