An invocation of ares_cancel() walks through the request list, calling
the callbacks of all pending requests on a channel. Previously, if such
a callback added a new request to the channel, the request list might
not end up empty, causing an abort by assertion failure. The present
commit ensures that precisely all requests present upon entry of
ares_cancel() are cancelled, and that adding new requests through
callbacks is safe.
