Before a dynamic server can be deleted, a set of preconditions must be
validated to ensure it is not referenced naymore by a stream or a
connection. This is implemented in srv_check_for_deletion().
The various criteria specified were incomplete. This allows a server
instance to be deleted while still be referenced by a stream and a
connection.
This bug was reproduced by using ASAN compilation. A script was used to
add and delete a server every second, while using h2load to generate
traffic with download of 1k objects. Here is the ASAN error.

To fix this, add <curr_used_conns> to the counters checked in
srv_check_for_deletion().
Outside of this bug, one case which remains sensible is for SF_DIRECT
streams which referenced a server instance early in process_stream()
before connect_server(). This occurs with use-server directive,
force-persist rule or cookie persistence. However, after code
reexamination, the code is considered reliable as process_stream() is
not rescheduled before connect_server() invocation. These observations
have been saved in sess_change_server() documentation to ensure it
remains valid in the future.
This must be backported up to 2.6.
