Comment (by dgoulet):

 * Commit `33335b8`

   DG1: Just after we set `answer = 1`, we should break. There is no need
 to continue the loop.
 {{{
 +        !AP_CONN_STATE_IS_UNATTACHED(base->linked_conn->state))
 +      answer = 1;
 }}}

 * Commit `a9012a61fafae3ca8c6ae40ba5f433dcf12aad71`

   DG2: There is an awful lot of code removal in there but the commit
 message doesn't tell me why nor what is being removed here. This is an
 interesting change, we go from a callback every second trying to cleanup
 to a function call only done when we successfully receive a consensus.

 The whole logic of this patch seems OK to me. Let's fix those unit tests
 :).
