[Tarantool-patches] [PATCH v4 10/12] election: support manual elections in clear_synchro_queue()

This patch adds support for manual elections from
`box.ctl.clear_synchro_queue()`. When an instance is in
`election_mode='manual'`, calling `clear_synchro_queue()` will make it
start a new election round.
Follow-up #5445
Part of #3055
@TarantoolBot document
Title: describe election_mode='manual'
Manual election mode is introduced. It may be used when the user wants to
control which instance is the leader explicitly instead of relying on
Raft election algorithm.
When an instance is configured with `election_mode='manual'`, it behaves
as follows:
1) By default, the instance acts like a voter: it is read-only and may
vote for other instances that are candidates.
2) Once `box.ctl.clear_synchro_queue()` is called, the instance becomes a
candidate and starts a new election round. If the instance wins the
elections, it remains leader, but won't participate in any new elections.
