multiple of the other, which isn't ideal if there are different delay
strategies that we might want in the future.

Creating an extensible regular timer framework in handle_connections
should make it possible to have any number of cadenced timers fire
regularly, without requiring that they happen in cadences related to
each other.

through the host table instead of risking out-of-bounds write.

--

Multiple threads may write to hosttable[x]->dead while
select_random_host() is running.  For example, a housekeeping thread
might clear the ->dead bit on some entries, or another connection to
dirmngr might manually mark a host as alive.

If one or more hosts are resurrected between the two loops over a
given table in select_random_host(), then the allocation of tbl might
not be large enough, resulting in a write past the end of tbl on the
second loop.

This change collapses the two loops into a single loop to avoid this
discrepancy: each host's "dead" bit is now only checked once.

As Werner points out, this isn't currently strictly necessary, since
npth will not switch threads unless a blocking system call is made,
and no blocking system call is made in these two loops.

However, in a subsequent change in this series, we will call a
function in this loop, and that function may sometimes write(2), or
call other functions, which may themselves block.  Keeping this as a
single-pass loop avoids the need to keep track of what might block and
what might not.
