http: reuse socket only when it is drained

Ensuring every request is assigned to a drained socket or nothing.
Because is has no benifit for a request to be attached to a non
drained socket and it prevents the request from being assigned to
a drained one, which might occur soon or already in the free pool
We achieve this by claiming a socket as free only when the socket
is drained.

+   * function returning from a blocking call, signaling an event, or calling a notification
+   * function, and so forth):
+   * - If the socket is still within SO_SNDBUF quota, Winsock copies the data from the application
+   * send and indicates the send completion to the application.
+   * - If the socket is beyond SO_SNDBUF quota and there's only one previously buffered send still
+   * in the stack kernel buffer, Winsock copies the data from the application send and indicates
+   * the send completion to the application.
+   * - If the socket is beyond SO_SNDBUF quota and there's more than one previously buffered send
+   * in the stack kernel buffer, Winsock copies the data from the application send. Winsock doesn't
+   * indicate the send completion to the application until the stack completes enough sends to put
