Frédéric Lécaille 4377dbd756 BUG/MINOR: quic: Missing listener accept queue tasklet wakeups
This bug was revealed by h2load tests run as follows:

      h2load -t 4 --npn-list h3 -c 64 -m 16 -n 16384  -v https://127.0.0.1:4443/

This open (-c) 64 QUIC connections (-n) 16384 h3 requets from (-t) 4 threads, i.e.
256 requests by connection. Such tests could not always pass and often ended with
such results displays by h2load:

The number of successful requests was always a multiple of 256.
Activating the traces also shew that some connections were blocked after having
successfully completed their handshakes due to the fact that the mux. The mux
is started upon the acceptation of the connection.

Under heavy load, some connections were never accepted. From the moment where
more than 4 (MAXACCEPT) connections were enqueued before a listener could be
woken up to accept at most 4 connections, the remaining connections were not
accepted ore lately at the second listener tasklet  wakeup.

Add a call to tasklet_wakeup() to the accept list tasklet of the listeners to
wake up it if there are remaining connections to accept after having called
listener_accept(). In this case the listener must not be removed of this
accept list, if not at the next call it will not accept anything more.

Must be backported to 2.7 and 2.6.
