Subject: [PATCH v2] Improve the wording of logical slot prerequisites to make
 the conditions easier to understand.

Replace the previous negative phrasing such as "there are no slots
whose ... is not true" with a direct expression that all slots must
have conflicting = false.

Similarly, reword the requirement on the new cluster to state that it
must not have any permanent logical slots, clarifying that any existing
logical slots must have temporary set to true.

These changes improve readability without altering the meaning.
