Move quorum recv that sets timeout before check

In the quorum work loop some message receive actions extend the timeout
after the timeout expiration is checked.  This is usually fine when the
work runs soon after the messages are received and before the timeout
expires.  But under load the work might not schedule until long after
both the message has been received and the timeout has expired.

If the message was a heartbeat message then the wakeup delay would be
mistaken for lack of activity on the server and it would try to take
over for an otherwise active server.

This moves the extension of the heartbeat on message receive to before
the timeout is checked.  In our case of a delayed heartbeat message it
would still find it in the recv queue and extend the timeout, avoiding
fencing an active server.
