Support leader election when running multiple replicas

[stevehipwell]

Describe the feature
I'd like NTH v2 to use leader election when more than one replica is running.

Is the feature request related to a problem?
I'd like to have multiple replicas running to enable fast switching between the active replica and the standby without waiting for the scheduler.

Describe alternatives you've considered

If NTH v2 isn't going to replace NTH v1 soon I think this is a requirement for NTH v1 too.

Super interested in this - very often happens that the node-termination-handler is scheduled on the node that is currently being terminated and this causes issues.
