Subject: libceph: flush msgr queue during mon_client shutdown

From: Sage Weil <[email protected]>

(cherry picked from commit f3dea7edd3d449fe7a6d402c1ce56a294b985261)
(cherry picked from commit 642c0dbde32f34baa7886e988a067089992adc8f)

We need to flush the msgr workqueue during mon_client shutdown to
ensure that any work affecting our embedded ceph_connection is
finished so that we can be safely destroyed.

Previously, we were flushing the work queue after osd_client
shutdown and before mon_client shutdown to ensure that any osd
connection refs to authorizers are flushed.  Remove the redundant
flush, and document in the comment that the mon_client flush is
needed to cover that case as well.
