    The acceptor already has a back-off feature for when we run out of · d44838bf

    filedescriptors, generalize that concept and use it for all cases
    where we cannot accept and/or serve the connection:  (Lack of sessions,
    lack of workerthreads).
    
    This is controlled by three paramters:
    
    Everytime we run into trouble, we increase the sleep-time by:
    	acceptor_sleep_incr (0.001 s)
    
    But we never let it get above
    	acceptor_sleep_max  (0.050 s)
    
    Once we manage to accept and schedule a connection, we multiply
    the sleep-time by:
    	acceptor_sleep_decay (0.9)
    
    The default numbers are more or less picked out of thin air.
    
    Two new stats counters help us keep track of this:
    	accept_fail
    		where accept(2) returns error.  This can be out of
    		file-descriptors, but also clients which closed while
    		they were stuck in the accept-queue.  Under normal
    		operation, a minor trickle is probably to be expected.
    
    	client_drop
    		New connection dropped, because we could not get a
    		session for it, or because the workerthreads were
    		too busy.
    
    	client_drop_late
    		An previously served connection was dropped for the
    		same reasons.
    
    As always, feedback welcome.
