As a result - peering with servers with many GLINE/KLINEs does not kill the connecting - server connection anymore. Thanks to Michi ! - Fix recursion bug on write errors: Depending on the stack size, too many clients on the same channel quitting at the same time would trigger a crash due to too many recursive calls to Conn_Close().
