The new algorithm does not check replies time as checking for the
currentEpoch in the reply ensures that the reply is about the current
election process.

The old algorithm used a PROMOTED flag and explicitly checks about
slave->master convertions. Wit the new cluster meta-data propagation
algorithm we just look at the configEpoch to check if we need to
reconfigure slots, then:
1) If a node is a master but it reaches zero served slots becuase of
reconfiguration.
2) If a node is a slave but the master reaches zero served slots because
of a reconfiguration.
We switch as a replica of the new slots owner.

We need to:
1) Increment the configEpoch.
2) Save it to disk and fsync the file.
3) Broadcast the PONG with the new configuration.
If other nodes will receive the updated configuration we need to be sure
to restart with this new config in the event of a crash.

First change: now there is no need to be a master in order to detect a
failure, however the majority of masters signaling PFAIL or FAIL is needed.
This change is important because it allows slaves rejoining the cluster
after a partition to sense the FAIL condition so that eventually all the
nodes agree on failures.
