I have a question. Don't we allow creating subscriptions on an
existing slot with a non-null 'inactive_timeout' set where
'inactive_timeout' of the slot is retained even after subscription
creation?

I tried this:

===================
--On publisher, create slot with 120sec inactive_timeout:
SELECT * FROM pg_create_logical_replication_slot('logical_slot1',
'pgoutput', false, true, true, 120);

--On subscriber, create sub using logical_slot1
create subscription mysubnew1_1  connection 'dbname=newdb1
host=localhost user=shveta port=5433' publication mypubnew1_1 WITH
(failover = true, create_slot=false, slot_name='logical_slot1');

--Before creating sub, pg_replication_slots output:
   slot_name   | failover | synced | active | temp | conf |
   lat                | inactive_timeout
---------------+----------+--------+--------+------+------+----------------------------------+------------------
 logical_slot1 | t        | f      | f      | f    | f    | 2024-03-25
11:11:55.375736+05:30 |              120

--After creating sub pg_replication_slots output:  (inactive_timeout is 0 now):
   slot_name   |failover | synced | active | temp | conf | | lat |
inactive_timeout
---------------+---------+--------+--------+------+------+-+-----+------------------
 logical_slot1 |t        | f      | t      | f    | f    | |     |
           0
===================

In CreateSubscription, we call  'walrcv_alter_slot()' /
'ReplicationSlotAlter()' when create_slot is false. This call ends up
setting active_timeout from 120sec to 0. Is it intentional?

thanks
Shveta
