Comment(by andrea):

 I've identified the cause of the last known assert: when
 connection_connect() fails, channel_tls_connect() doesn't notice, but the
 normal 'connection close' callbacks never happen, so the channel gets
 wedged in the opening state with a pointer to a bad connection forever.
 The connection gets freed at some point and the assert gets triggered
 because the thing connection_close() is being called on is not a
 connection any more.
