GitHub PR: #350

This adds a public method to AutorecoveringConnection to allow for removal of a queue from recorded queues (and its related bindings) without having to call Channel#queueDelete.

GitHub PR: #346

Trigger recovery if a socket write fails

Detecting connection failure on reading can take a lot of time (even forever if the reading thread is stuck), so connection recovery can now be triggered when a write operation fails. This can make the client more reactive to detect TCP connection failure.

GitHub issue: #341

Add RpcClient doCall/responseCall/primitiveCall overloads which include timeout

Thanks to @AndreasPresthammer for this contribution.

GitHub PR: #338

Fix a potential race condition between channel recovery and acknowledgement offset

During recovery, when attempting to acknowledge a delivery the channel could be closed with
reply-code=406, reply-text=PRECONDITION_FAILED - unknown delivery tag 0, class-id=60, method-id=80) and messages would stop being delivered.

Thanks to @vikinghawk for this contribution.
