Prevent build up of cancelled TimerTasks in bisocket transport
--------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JBREM-1005
                 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBREM-1005
             Project: JBoss Remoting
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
    Affects Versions: 2.2.2.SP8, 2.4.0.GA (Pinto)
            Reporter: Ron Sigal
         Assigned To: Ron Sigal
             Fix For: 2.4.0.SP1, 2.2.2.SP9


The behavior of java.util.Timer and java.util.TimerThread is such that a cancelled java.util.TimerTask is removed from the Timer's queue the next time it is executed after being cancelled.  JBossMessaging has effectively disabled the bisocket control connection ping mechanism by setting the parameter "pingFrequency" to 214748364, which means that the org.jboss.remoting.transport.bisocket.BisocketServerInvoker.ControlMonitorTimerTask gets created but essentially "never" runs.  So when a JBM connection closes, it also shuts down the Remoting bisocket connection, which causes the ControlMonitorTimerTask to get cancelled, but it remains in the Timer queue "forever".
