They are combined into one function.

Fixed.
Also, I have tested the combination of this patch and the physical standby.
1. Logical slots defined on old physical standby *cannot be upgraded*
2. Logical slots defined on physical primary *are migrated* to new physical standby
The primal reason is that pg_upgrade cannot be used for physical standby. If
users want to upgrade standby, rsync command is used instead. The command
creates the cluster based on the based on the new primary, hence they are
replicated to new standby. In contrast, the old cluster is basically ignored so
that slots on old cluster is not upgraded. I updated the doc accordingly.
