Make leader election wait for cluster formation

- Leader election now waits for other nodes to connect before starting
- Added cleanup of stale global registrations from disconnected nodes
- Only starts election after cluster is established in clustered mode
- Non-clustered mode continues to elect immediately

This prevents both nodes from becoming leaders when they start
before the cluster is fully formed.
