Collation fetching fairness - handle group rotations

[tdimitrov]

Related to #1797 and follow up from #4880

On group rotation we could end up in the case where a fully backed candidate is provided by the old group for a claim queue slot falling into the next one. For example the claim queue holds paras [A, B, A] at RPX and two candidates for para A are provided. At RP X+1 a group rotation occurs. Now the claim queue has got [B, A, ...]. The second slot (A) is already claimed by the old validator group however the new one doesn't know about this. As a result we will end up with one additional collation.
