Few comments:
1) For some reason SlotInvalidationCauses was with PGDLLIMPORT, this
is removed now. This is required if it needs to be accessible by
loaded modules. Is there any impact or is it ok?
-extern PGDLLIMPORT const char *const SlotInvalidationCauses[];
+typedef struct SlotInvalidationCauseMap
+{
+       int                     cause;
+       const char *cause_name;
+}                      SlotInvalidationCauseMap;

2) The new structure should be added to typedefs.list:
+typedef struct SlotInvalidationCauseMap
+{
+       int                     cause;
+       const char *cause_name;
+}                      SlotInvalidationCauseMap;

3) After adding you can run pgindent on slot.h to indent the following code:
+typedef struct SlotInvalidationCauseMap
+{
+       int                     cause;
+       const char *cause_name;
+}                      SlotInvalidationCauseMap;
