First step in the introduction of a MainWorker. When finished, all
routing workers will run in separate threads (currently one runs in
the main thread), and the main worker run in the main thread.
Housekeeper will disappear and to the extent housekeeping tasks are
needed (where applicable they will be changed into delayed calls)
they will be run by the main worker.
Most of the ones still remaining outside are special cases.
Also, removed locking from status manipulation functions as it
has not been required for quite some time.
By storing the server statistics object in side the session, the lookup
involved in getting a worker-local value is avoided. Since the lookup is
done multiple times for a single query, it is beneficial to store it in
the session.
As the worker-local value is never deleted, it is safe to store a
reference to it in the session. It is also never updated concurrently so
no atomic operations are necessary.
Minor renaming of the session state enum values. Also exposed the session
state stringification function in the public header and removed the
stringification macro.
For lifetime management keep RWBackends in a vector of unique_ptrs.
RWSplitSession keeps the unique_ptrs very private, and provides a vector
of plain pointers for all other interfaces.
This is essentially just a search and replace to change SRWBackend to
RWBackend* and SRWBackendList to PRWBackends, a vector of a raw
pointers. In the next few commits vector<unique_ptr<RWBackend>>
will be used for life time management.
There are a lot of diffs from the global search and replace. Only a few manual
edits had to be done.

Allocating the session before a DCB guarantees that at no point will a DCB
have a null session. This further clarifies the concept of the session and
also allows the listener reference to be moved there.
Ideally, the session itself would allocate and assign the client DCB but
since the Listener is the only one who does it, it's acceptable for now.
As each connection now immediately gets a session the dummy session is no
longer required. The next step would be to combine parts of the session
and the client DCB into one entity. This would prevent the possibility of
a client DCB with no associated session. Backend DCBs are different as
they can move from one session to another when the persistent connection
pool is in use.
Whenever a client DCB is accepted, a session for it is allocated. This
simplifies the handling of shared data between DCBs by allowing it to be
placed inside the session object. Currently, the data is stashed away in
the client DCB.
