[PATCH win-vdagent] Don't exit vdagent when a client disconnects

[Jonathon Jongsma <jjongsma@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Previously, when a client disconnects, the vdagent executable exited.
The agent was restarted immediately in order to be ready for the next
client to reconnect.

This is generally fine, but there are certain situations
where it causes issues. For example, if client A is connected to a guest
and client B connects to the same guest, client A will be forcibly
disconnected and causes the the vdagent to restart. This scenario is
racy because the agent can take some time to exit and restart. Client B
may think that the agent is connected at startup and may send agent
messages to the guest.  At some point the server will recieve
notification that the agent has exited and send an AGENT_DISCONNECTED
message to client B. After the agent has been fully restarted, an
AGENT_CONNECTED message will be sent to the client, but any messages
sent between client connection and the AGENT_DISCONNECTED message will
be lost. This causes problems especially with fullscreen mode in
virt-viewer.

The solution is to not exit and restart the agent when a client
disconnects. This is how the linux vdagent behaves. Instead, we simply
cancel all ongoing file transfers and reset the clipboard when a client
is disconnected.

Fixes: rhbz#1064495
