When aggregating the overall load balancing state, we should treat both IDLE and CONNECTING subchannels as "connection in progress". Otherwise, RPCs could fail prematurely if one subchannel enters TF while all the others are still in CONNECTING.
#7816 made each individual subchannel stay in TF until READY if it previously was in TF. So subchannels with CONNECTING state are those in first time connecting. We should give them time to connect.
