changelog/rpc: Fix rpc_clnt_t mem leaks

Backport of: http://review.gluster.org/13658

PROBLEM:
   1. Freeing up rpc_clnt object might lead to crashes. Well,
      it was not a necessity to free rpc-clnt object till now
      because all the existing use cases needs to reconnect
      back on disconnects. Hence timer code was not taking
      ref on rpc-clnt object.

      Glusterd had some use-cases that led to crash due to
      ping-timer and they fixed only those code paths that
      involve ping-timer.

      Now, since changelog has an use-case where rpc-clnt
      need to be freed up, we need to fix timer code to take
      refs

   2. In changelog, because of issue 1, only mydata was being
      freed which is incorrect. And there are races where
      rpc-clnt object would access the freed mydata which
      would lead to crashes.

      Since changelog xlator resides on brick side and is long
      living process, if multiple libgfchangelog consumers
      register to changelog and disconnect/reconnect mulitple
      times, it would result in leak of 'rpc-clnt' object
      for every connect/disconnect.

SOLUTION:
   1. Handle ref/unref of 'rpc_clnt' structure in timer
      functions properly.
   2. In changelog, unref 'rpc_clnt' in RPC_CLNT_DISCONNECT
      after disabling timers and free mydata on RPC_CLNT_DESTROY.

RPC SETUP IN CHANGELOG:
   1. changelog xlator initiates rpc server say 'changelog_rpc_server'
   2. libgfchangelog initiates one rpc server say 'libgfchangelog_rpc_server'
   3. libgfchangelog initiates rpc client and connects to 'changelog_rpc_server'
   4. In return changelog_rpc_server initiates a rpc client and connects back
      to 'libgfchangelog_rpc_server'

REF/UNREF HANDLING IN TIMER FUNCTIONS:
Let's say rpc clnt refcount = 1
   1. Take the ref before reigstering callback to timer queue
           >>>>  rpc_clnt_ref (say ref count becomes = 2)
   2. Register a callback to timer say 'callback1'
   3. If register fails:
           >>>> rpc_clnt_unref (ref count = 1)
   4. On timer expiration, 'callback1' gets called. So unref rpc clnt at the end
      in 'callback1'. This is corresponding to ref taken in step 1
           >>>> rpc_clnt_unref (ref count = 1)
   5. The cycle from step-1 to step-4 continues....until timer cancel event happens
   6. timer cancel of say 'callback1'
           If timer cancel fails:
                 Do nothing, Step-4 would have unrefd
           If timer cancel succeeds:
                 >>>> rpc_clnt_unref (ref count = 1)
