Cover letter
The real fix will be to make the leader balancer aware
of maintenance mode, but the test has become much more
unstable since recent leader balancer changes to do
more movements concurrently, so its worth mitigating
that.
The workaround is to set a short mute timeout so that
muting nodes has no real effect, and a short idle timeout
so that post-maintenance leader movements happen promptly.
