Users reported too many connections hanging in CLOSE_WAIT state.
The problem was identified to SafeSquid waiting for peer response "close notify" when SSL_shutdown is called.
This is a standard TLS protocol requirement.
However the response can take extremely long time in heavily loaded networks that witness packet drops.
SafeSquid now adopts the "quiet shutdown" mode for connections that are detected to have been closed or broken.
