/**
 * For the multithreaded mode, assume a single thread that periodically "gets work" from the network
 * layer. In addition, several worker threads are asynchronously calling into the callbacks of the
 * UA_Connection that holds a single connection.
 *
 * Creating a connection: When "GetWork" encounters a new connection, it creates a UA_Connection
 * with the socket information. This is added to the mappings array that links sockets to
 * UA_Connection structs.
 *
 * Reading data: In "GetWork", we listen on the sockets in the mappings array. If data arrives (or
 * the connection closes), a WorkItem is created that carries the work and a pointer to the
 * connection.
 *
 * Closing a connection: Closing can happen in two ways. Either it is triggered by the server in an
 * asynchronous callback. Or the connection is close by the client and this is detected in
 * "GetWork". The server needs to do some internal cleanups (close attached securechannels, etc.).
 * So even when a closed connection is detected in "GetWork", we trigger the server to close the
 * connection (with a WorkItem) and continue from the callback.
 *
 * - Server calls close-callback: We close the socket, set the connection-state to closed and add
 *   the connection to a linked list from which it is deleted later. The connection cannot be freed
 *   right away since other threads might still be using it.
 *
 * - GetWork: We remove the connection from the mappings array. In the non-multithreaded case, the
 *   connection is freed. For multithreading, we return a workitem that is delayed, i.e. that is
 *   called only after all workitems created before are finished in all threads. This workitems
 *   contains a callback that goes through the linked list of connections to be freed.
