mod_smacks: Send out more ack requests where needed
Under some circumstances it was possible that more than "max_unacked_stanzas"
where left in the outgoing stanza queue without forcing an ack.
This could happen, when more stanzas entered the queue while the last ack request
was still unanswered.
Now the test "#queue > max_unacked_stanzas" is done upon receiving
an ack as well as when sending out stanzas, which fixes this bug.

This module is an experiment about a more graceful shutdown process. Why === When shutting down, a number of sessions, connections and other things are teared down. Due to all these things happening very quickly, sometimes eg client unavailable notifications don't make it to all remote contacts because the server-to-server connections are teared down just after. How === This module works by breaking the shutdown process into separate steps with a brief pause between them. It goes something like this 1. Stop accepting new client connections. 2. Close all client connections. 3. Fire event for everything else. 4. Tell `net.server` to quit the main loop. 5. ??? 6. Still here? Kill itself.
