Raft should not initialize if db is misconfigured

[plorenz]

Controller will try to initialize raft from the DB if it's configured. If it's configured but pointing to an invalid location, the controller will panic, but raft will already be initialized. The second run will then succeed. It should fail consistently, before raft is initialized.
