BUG/MEDIUM: apppet: Improve spinning loop detection with the new API

Conditions to detect the spinning loop for applets based on the new API are
not accurrate. We cannot continue to check the channel's buffers state to
know if an applet has made some progress. At least, we must also check the
applet's buffers.

After digging to find the right way to do, it was clear that the best is to
use something similar to what is performed for the streams, namely, checking
read and write events. And in fact, it is quite easy to do with the new
API. So let's do so.

This patch must be backported as far as 3.0.
