raft: fix an assertion failure in raft_stop_candidate

There is a false assertion in raft_stop_candidate(): it assumes that the
node must always have a running timer whenever it sees the leader.
This is not true when the node is busy writing the new term on disk.

Cover the mentioned case in the assertion.

Closes #8169
