Currently, if a chunk is scheduled to be sent through a transport that is currently unconfirmed, it will be leaked as it is dequeued from outq and is not re-queued nor freed. As I'm not aware of any situation that may lead to this situation, I'm fixing this by freeing the chunk and also logging a trace so that we can fix the other bug if it ever happens.
