The goal is to treat peer-initiated-unilateral-disconnects as being somewhat equivalent to the way that we would idle out the connection if we had no messages for it, on the supposition that the most likely cause of a disconnect in between command verbs that we send is that the peer decided that we were idle too long. That isn't the only possible reason, but it is the motivating example. For the idled-out case we should close the current session and have our message(s) go out on a separate session. We don't want to try the next host in the connection plan in case we're talking to some kind of honey pit configuration where only the first MX in the plan is valid, and even talking to a secondary can harm your ability to send to the first in the future. Handling this is a little tricky because we need to take care of the distinction between getting a unilateral before or after we've attempted to send a message. In the before-case we don't want to blindly assume that we should start a new session because that would mean that a persistent issue on the first MX would have us spinning our wheels trying new connections only to the first MX over and over. This commit adds a couple of integration tests that contrive situations where we exercise some pertinent cases. refs: https://github.com/KumoCorp/kumomta/pull/482
