i2c: stm32f7: fix a race in slave mode with arbitration loss irq

When in slave mode, an arbitration loss (ARLO) may be detected before the
slave had a chance to detect the stop condition (STOPF in ISR).
This is seen when two master + slave adapters switch their roles. It
provokes the i2c bus to be stuck, busy as SCL line is stretched.
- the I2C_SLAVE_STOP event is never generated due to STOPF flag is set but
  don't generate an irq (race with ARLO irq, STOPIE is masked). STOPF flag
  remains set until next master xfer (e.g. when STOPIE irq get unmasked).
  In this case, completion is generated too early: immediately upon new
  transfer request (then it doesn't send all data).
- Some data get stuck in TXDR register. As a consequence, the controller
  stretches the SCL line: the bus gets busy until a future master transfer
  triggers the bus busy / recovery mechanism (this can take time... and
  may never happen at all)

So choice is to let the STOPF being detected by the slave isr handler,
to properly handle this stop condition. E.g. don't mask IRQs in error
handler, when the slave is running.
