handle_announce() waits for playing_conn to stop if it's already shutting down

- If playing_conn is already stopping, handle_announce() waits one second for it to stop. This gives the current RTSP connection a better chance to get the player, if it has been started very quickly after the previous RTSP connection had decided to stop. iTunes can sometimes be very quick in starting a new RTSP connection after tearing down the previous one, but shairport_sync unfortunately needs at least 100ms to shut down the old connection.
- cleanup_threads() sets playing_conn to NULL if it points to the removed thread, otherwise playing_conn would be a dangling pointer, which is bad, because handle_announce() dereferences it unless it is NULL.
