Fix amp failover where failover already failed

If a failover ran on an amphora and was unsuccessful and reverted, it
would mark the amp status "DELETED" and un-busy the health record.
It would then be picked up on the next failover check, start failing
over, and break early since it appeared to be "unallocated".

Also, housekeeping can now clean up expired amphora records based on the
amphora's updated_at time instead of the health record's time, which
means the records won't be immediately cleaned up anymore after they go
through failover flows.
