pandas.Index.slice_locs when label not found

[albertotb]

Problem description

The documentation for pandas.Index.slice_locs does not specify what happens if the label(s) are not found. Internally it seems to be using pandas.Index.get_slice_bound, so maybe a reference to this method should be added.

Another thing that would be nice is if pandas.Index.slice_locs worked like pandas.Index.get_loc, where the method to find the index can be specified: exact, nearest, etc.

Expected Output

I would expect that the documentation for pandas.Index.slice_locs gives details about what happens if the label is not found. Details about the kind argument would also be nice.
