This function (box_sync_replication) is also called on bootstrap, when
we do want to throw an error in case we fail to connect to 'quorum'
replicas.

Anyway, why do you need to call this function? Wouldn't replicaset_sync
switch the instance to ro in this case? In other words, why can't we
simply pass connect_quorum=false to box_sync_replication called from
box_set_replication?

AFAICS this isn't quite consistent with the comment to the function
prototype, which says:

  Check whether a replication quorum is formed.
  If it is, switch to write mode. Switch to readonly
  mode otherwise.

This change obsoletes the comment to this function.
