Before replication_connect_quorum was introduced, we checked for
duplicate connections when configuring replication and raised exception
on error (see replicaset_update).

Now, due to replication_connect_quorum, we may be unable to detect
duplicate connections, because we can fail to connect to some masters
within replication_connect_timeout, before box.cfg{} returns. So we
allow the configuration anyway and print a warning if later on, when a
master is connected, we find it to be a duplicate.

I guess we should preserve this behavior and just fix the crash.
