Subject: Ticket 49768 - Under network intensive load persistent search can erronously decrease connection refcnt

Bug Description:
	If a connection enters in turbo mode (because of high traffic) or
	a worker reads several requests in the read buffer (more_data), the thread
	keeps processing connection.
	In that condition it should not decrease the refcnt.
	In case the operation is a persistent search, it decreases systematically
	the refcnt.
	So refcnt can become lower than the actual number of threads active on the connection.

Most of the time it can create messages like
		Attempt to release connection that is not acquired
	In some rare case, if the a connection is out of the active list but a remaining thread
	tries to remove it again it can lead to a crash

Fix Description:
	The fix consist, when processing a PS, to decrease the refcnt at the condition
	the connection is not in turbo mode or in more_data.
