To avoid memory leaks we need to free monitor_pages and int_page for
vmbus_connection. Implement vmbus_disconnect() function by separating cleanup
path from vmbus_connect().

As we use hv_vmbus_con to release channels (see free_channel() in channel_mgmt.c)
we need to make sure the work was done before we remove the queue, do that with
drain_workqueue(). We also need to avoid handling messages  which can (potentially)
create new channels, so set vmbus_connection.conn_state = DISCONNECTED at the very
beginning of vmbus_exit() and check for that in vmbus_onmessage_work().
