Handle ICAP persistent connection races better.
When an ICAP transaction loses a persistent connection race with an ICAP
server (i.e., Squid sends the ICAP request on a persistent connection just
closed by the ICAP server), the transaction throws and the exception is
treated as a regular error. Even though the transaction may be retried, the
negative side-effects may include ICAP service suspension due to transaction
failures.
This patch logs ICAP transactions that fail due to pconn races with
ERR_ICAP_RACE status and does _not_ blame the ICAP service for the failure.
The following problem was exposed by the pconn races but its fix is
useful in other scopes as well:
When the ICAP connection times out, we now close the connection before
throwing because an exception may be bypassed, and we will throw again (during
peaceful bypass) if Comm tells us that the connection is ready after we timed
out (yes, that can happen because Comm timeouts do not auto-close the
connection).

Made eCAP compile again after CbcPointer<> changes.
Old eCAP code tried to call stillProducing(this) and stillConsuming(this)
methods from a const status() method. Doing so produces compiler errors
because stillProducing() and stillConsuming() do not accept pointers to
constant jobs.
CBDATA_CLASSes and, hence, CbcPointer<>, do not support const-correctness
well: In order to create/destroy a cbdata-based smart pointer, one has to
lock/unlock cbdata, which requires modifying the object. Thus, the smart
pointer cannot point to a truly constant object. The core of the problem is
that CBDATA_CLASSes keep cbdata and object data together. When all raw/dumb
CBDATA_CLASS pointers are gone, we can separate the two "datas" and solve the
const-correctness problem for good. The "separate-datas" design would even be
consistent with the original cbdata design which we often violate, IMO.
There are other workarounds. We could declare toCbdata() constant, for
example. However, that would essentially disable checks where a
cbdata-protected object is being destroyed despite the caller's intent to keep
the object constant. This change is not as general but is also much less
