Subject: p2p: track write errors and prevent writes during shutdown

As of this commit, we no longer rely on the protocol handler to report
write errors in a timely fashion. When a write fails, shutdown is
initiated immediately and no new writes can start. This will also
prevent new writes from starting after Server.Stop has been called.
