Move startup code to ThreadedPoll class.
Refcount-ish based would be better, so add a TODO (idea: browse existing
connections to see if there are pending responses, preventing thread
shutdown).

Also, factorise existing checks.

This can happen if object creation was transactionally undone, and database
was packed.

This requires explicitly collecting garbage if we get disconnected from
primary master.

Also, improve test (try to break code in tests, don't test unneeded
properties).

A storage might notify the master after the cluster as fall down to the
verification state.

This should increase process responsiveness when a single _poll call
fetched many packets: as long as packet queue is not empty, no epoll.poll
call was made. This means that outgoing packets were kept in our buffer
until packet queue becomes empty.

Some requests can be safely ignored when received over a closed connection.
This was previously done explicitly in handlers, but it turns out it would
cause a lot of code duplication. Instead, define the policy on a packet
type basis, and apply it to all packets upon reception, before passing it
to handler.
Also, protect request handlers when they respond, as connection might be
closed.

Those responses are implemented using Error packets.

This change has an important effect on "abort" call in client handler: once
primary master node locked a transaction, a client must not be allowed to
abort it (it already asked to commit).
Also, remove parameter value in abortFor (it is the new default behaviour).
Also, document abort a bit more.

- set master_conn to None to clarify disconnection
- purge node pool after closing all connections
- allow restarting polling thread after its shutdown
Also, only start polling thread when needed (side-effect of last point).
