The replication slots data is stored in binary format on the disk under the pg_replslot/<<slot_name>> directory which isn't human readable. If the server is crashed/down (for whatever reasons) and unable to come up, currently there's no way for the user/admin/developer to know what were all the replication slots available at the time of server crash/down to figure out what's the restart lsn, xid, two phase info or types of slots etc.
What do you need that for? You can't do anything with a replication slot while the server is down.
