raft: Save and read new election timer in header snapshot.
This patch store the latest election timer in snapshot during log
compression, and when server restarts it reads the value from the log.
Without this, any previous changes to election timer will be lost
in the log, and if server restarts, it will use the default value
instead of the changed value.
Fixes: commit 8e35461 ("ovsdb raft: Support leader election time change online.")
