client: Check if other thread claims it has the buck before claiming it.

Originaly, the code checked if another client is the queue and infered
ownership of the buck from that. Commit fa959500
added a separate variable to track the buck. That caused, that a new
call might enter claiming it has the buck, while another thread was
signalled to take the buck. This ends in two threads claiming they hold
the buck and entering poll(). This happens due to a race on waking up
threads on the client lock mutex.

This caused multi-threaded clients to hang, most prominently visible and
reproducible on python based clients, like virt-manager.

This patch causes threads, that have been signalled to take the buck to
re-check if buck is held by another thread.
