Subject: [PATCH] Fix the async free() and disconnect() functions

To make sure that these functions can also be called from functions
other than command callbacks, the flag IN_CALLBACK is introduced that
holds whether the context is currently executing a callback. If so,
redisAsyncFree() and redisAsyncDisconnect() should delegate their task
to the reply processor to avoid segfaults.
