SUNRPC: Avoid spurious wake-up during UDP connect processing

To clear out old state, the UDP connect workers unconditionally invoke
xs_close() before proceeding with a new connect.  Nowadays this causes
a spurious wake-up of the task waiting for the connect to complete.

This is a little racey, but usually harmless.  The waiting task
immediately retries the connect via a call_bind/call_connect sequence,
which usually finds the transport already in the connected state
because the connect worker has finished in the background.

To avoid a spurious wake-up, factor the xs_close() logic that resets
the underlying socket into a helper, and have the UDP connect workers
call that helper instead of xs_close().
