** [tickets:#3050] amfd: stuck in infinite loop if controller failover occurs
during split network**

If SC absence is enabled, amfd can sometimes get stuck in an infinite loop
processing compcsi and sisu sync messages, if a controller failover occurs
during a split network event.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Enable SC absence
2. Put active SC [SC-1] and 1 payload in a network partition. Thus the
cluster is split into 2 partitions:
* Smaller partition: active SC [SC-1]+ 1 payloads
* Bigger partition: standby SC [SC-2] + the remaining payloads
3. Block active SC [SC-1] from consensus service causing it to
self-fence
4. Merge network
5. SC-2 will receive sync messages from a PL that will loop forever in
AMFD causing a node failfast
