MXS-1805 Force all maxadmin connections to main thread

If maxadmin connections are handled by different workers, then
there may be a deadlock if some maxadmin command requires
communication with all workers.

Namely, in that case a message will be sent to all other workers
but the current one, but that message will not be handled if that
other worker at that point sits in the debugcmd_lock spinlock
in debugcmd.c:execute_cmd().

We can prevent that deadlock from happening simply by ensuring
that all maxadmin connections are handled by one thread.
