block/nbd: fix possible use after free of s->connect_thread


If on nbd_close() we detach the thread (in
nbd_co_establish_connection_cancel() thr->state becomes
CONNECT_THREAD_RUNNING_DETACHED), after that point we should not use
s->connect_thread (which is set to NULL), as running thread may free it
at any time.

Still nbd_co_establish_connection() does exactly this: it saves
s->connect_thread to local variable (just for better code style) and
use it even after yield point, when thread may be already detached.

Fix that. Also check thr to be non-NULL on
nbd_co_establish_connection() start for safety.

After this patch "case CONNECT_THREAD_RUNNING_DETACHED" becomes
impossible in the second switch in nbd_co_establish_connection().
Still, don't add extra abort() just before the release. If it somehow
possible to reach this "case:" it won't hurt. Anyway, good refactoring
of all this reconnect mess will come soon.
