response future does not complete if a connection is closed before the response 
is received

                 Key: GERONIMO-3917
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-3917
             Project: Geronimo
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: public (Regular issues)
          Components: AsyncHttpClient
    Affects Versions: 1.x
            Reporter: Sangjin Lee
            Assignee: Rick McGuire


If for *any reason* the server closes a connection without sending the 
response, calls that wait on ResponseFuture.get() for the result will not 
return.

The key issue is the way HttpIoHandler.sessionClosed() works.  The 
sessionClosed() method is invoked when a session is closed.  Currently the only 
major things it does are to call callback's onClosed() method and remove the 
timeout alarm.  If the message was not received or an exception did not occur, 
however, the future remains not complete.  Therefore, any caller that waits on 
Future.get() will never get unblocked.

The sessionClosed() method needs to detect a situation where the connection is 
*prematurely* closed while the response has not been received and cause an 
exception and complete the future.

This is a pretty critical issue.
