Use fresh timer every time for F3 backoffs

To avoid potential of deadlock in case f3Participator is used from
multiple goroutines use throw-away timers at the price of higher GC.

Also use the cancel function in context explicitly in a unified stop
hook that awaits the participation to end before exiting.
