solved design issue with queue termination
... and also improved the test suite. There is a design issue in the
v3 queue engine that manifested to some serious problems with the new
processing mode. However, in v3 shutdown may take eternally if a queue
runs in DA mode, is configured to preserve data AND the action fails and
retries immediately. There is no cure available for v3, it would
require doing much of the work we have done on the new engine. The window
of exposure, as one might guess from the description, is very small. That
is probably the reason why we have not seen it in practice.
