Goals
Find acceptable fix for #432
Implementation
The basic idea here is there's nothing wrong with the connection event manager -- the problem lies in the fact that the PeerManager never tells the caller it didn't actually send anything cause the peer appeared disconnected. The SessionWantSender in turn updates the state of sent wants based on incorrect assumption something actually happened. This PR deals with the problem by helping the SessionWantSender avoid getting into an incorrect state by not updating its state when SendWants does nothing.
The subsequent connect event should trigger the sending of the WantBlock then.
For discussion
This is just an experiment and a suggestion for someone else to pick up, to help solve #432 more quickly -- I'm not doing the leg work of testing and change log etc
