A forced activation previously relied on promote_trigger_file before starting the stopped standby, allowing startup to reach catalog access while recovery was still completing. Start the standby with GpStandbyStart and perform the normal pg_ctl promotion before reading the catalog. Share one 600-second monotonic deadline across startup, promotion, and the utility CHECKPOINT retry. Keep activation-specific handling out of gpstart and leave its CLI unchanged.

Fixes #1717.
For forced activation of a stopped standby, start the postmaster directly with
GpStandbyStartinstead of usingpromote_trigger_fileandgpstart. Then promote it withpg_ctl promote, wait for a successful utilityCHECKPOINT, read the catalog, and restart the segments.The existing 600-second
pg_ctl promotetimeout is preserved. A single monotonic deadline covers standby startup, promotion, and the utilityCHECKPOINT, preventing these waits from accumulating while leaving segment restart to its existing timeout handling.
