[PATCH 05/14] rpc: keep backchannel xprt as long as server connection

["J. Bruce Fields" <bfields@redhat.com>]

Multiple backchannels can share the same tcp connection; from rfc 5661 section
2.10.3.1:

	A connection's association with a session is not exclusive.  A
	connection associated with the channel(s) of one session may be
	simultaneously associated with the channel(s) of other sessions
	including sessions associated with other client IDs.

However, multiple backchannels share a connection, they must all share
the same xid stream (hence the same rpc_xprt); the only way we have to
match replies with calls at the rpc layer is using the xid.

So, keep the rpc_xprt around as long as the connection lasts, in case
we're asked to use the connection as a backchannel again.

Requests to create new backchannel clients over a given server
connection should results in creating new clients that reuse the
existing rpc_xprt.

But to start, just reject attempts to associate multiple rpc_xprt's with
the same underlying bc_xprt.
