Amaury Denoyelle d971d3fed8 MINOR: muxes: adjust takeover with buf_wait interaction
Takeover operation defines an argument <release>. It's a boolean which
if set indicate that freed connection resources during the takeover does
not have to be reallocated on the new thread. Typically, it is set to
false when takever is performed to reuse a connection. However, when
used to be able to delete a connection from a different thread,
<release> should be set to true.

Previously, <release> was only set in conjunction with "del server"
handler. This operation was performed under thread isolation, which
guarantee that not thread-safe operation such as removal from buf_wait
list could be performed on takeover if <release> was true. In the
contrary case, takeover operation would fail.

Recently, "del server" handler has been adjusted to remove idle
connection cleanup with takeover. As such, <release> is never set to
true in remaining takeover usage.

However, takeover is also used to enforce strict-maxconn on a server.
This is performed to delete a connection from any thread, which is the
primary reason of <release> to true. But for the moment as takeover
implementers considers that thread isolation is active if <release> is
set, this is not yet applicable for strict-maxconn usage.

Thus, the purpose of this patch is to adjust takeover implementation.
Remove assumption between <release> and thread-isolation mode. It's not
possible to remove a connection from a buf_wait list, an error will be
return in any case.
