    Four-letter words to voluntarily shed client connections

    Introduce 3 new 4-letter commands:
     - shed: close all client connections
     - sh25: close approximatively 1/4 of client connections
     - sh50: close approximatively half of client connections
    
    In clusters with large number of clients, a rolling bounce (or multiple) 
can lead to a situation of severe connection imbalance.
    
    In these situations, restarting clients is the only solution to rebalance 
the load among servers.
    
    This change introduces server admin command that voluntarily close client 
connections.
    Clients should be able to migrate transparently to another server, just 
like in case of actual disconnection or server crash.
