Note that adding support for "idle mode for main connection" combined
with b809f53d3f5b uncovers a socket leak due to qc->close.cancelable set.

In more details:
- there can be connections with stretched pto e.g. due to missing client ack,
  large enough such that a close timer (3*pto) fires after the idle timer
- now that QUIC connection is handled on graceful shutdown as idle,
  entering graceful shutdown results in setting a close timer, and closing
  can take additional cycle following the "qc->close.timer_set" condition
- pto and idle timers fired (and removed)
- only close and, possibly, keepalive timers left; both cancelable

I suggest removing the cancelable property of a close timer
given that we want to wait for 3*PTO while in a closing state
and send back sensible CONNECTION_CLOSE to any further input
(otherwise it would emit less sensible stateless reset).
This will fix leaving event cycle without non-cancelable timers set.

Looks good.
