Describe the bug
igmp-proxy plugin doesn't respect carp status. If my primary firewall goes offline and later comes back, (multicast) iptv streams will freeze, because proxy on secondary node doesn't turn off.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Setup 2 opnsense instances with working carp failover.
- Set net.inet.carp.preempt tunable to 1 (only because my secondary device is a lot weaker).
- Install and configure os-igmp-proxy.
- Start iptv stream and confirm it works.
- Restart primary device.
- Wait for failover to secondary device.
- Stream resumes.
- Wait for primary device to come online and igmp proxy service to start.
- Stream starts glitching and dropping frames and eventually freezes (because 2 igmp proxies are running at the same time).
Client is my PC with mpv player.
Expected behavior
- Igmp-proxy checks carp status before starting.
- On Carp event change, igmp-proxy is started or stopped.

Additional context
I tried writing carp php script myself, but haven't found a way to mimic start and stop button action on /ui/core/service in webui. That one seems to use ajax web api to initiate the action.
Environment
