That's the term used for now three releases, counting v11 in the pack,
so I would not change that now. The concept of non-initialized slots is
fuzzy as well as it could be attached to some other meta-data.
So, chewing on all that, I would suggest the following error message as
the attached patch and just move on:
+ERROR: cannot move slot not reserving WAL
