`is_election_candidate` is even longer. I thought about `can_be_candidate`
firstly, but then I realized that it is the same as `can_be_leader`, because
the purpose of a candidate is to become a leader anyway. And we are looking
for a leader, not a candidate. The latter is just an intermediate state.

I shortened the name to `can_lead`. Ok?

As for inability to boot a cluster we might in the future add a flag `can_boot`
if necessary. See new patch in v2.
