The problem is that it makes no sense to make a slur from one voice to
another.
If you start and end the slur in the same voice, there is no problem:

\score
{
  \notes \context Staff = "StaffA" {
      \relative c''
      {
       a' \( g f e | d8 f e g (
       <
         { \stemUp ) \) f4. d8 }
         \context Voice = "VA" { \stemDown a8 c b d }
       > |
      }
   }
}


Notice how I replaced the outer slurs with Phrasing slurs - nested slurs
also makes no sense even though the file compiles alright.

If you need a name for the upper voice, you just instantiate it like
this:

\score
{
  \notes \context Staff = "StaffA" {
      \relative c''
      \context Voice = "VS" {
       a' \( g f e | d8 f e g (
       <
         { \stemUp ) \) f4. d8 }
         \context Voice = "VA" { \stemDown a8 c b d }
       > |
      }
   }
}
