As a bit of background why I assume this will fix "things" - we have a
few places in the connection sequence where we do something, and when
it's finished, set up a coarse timer to "go on with the next step" -
which always means "1 second delay" because that's how the coarse
timers work.

I've dug into this a bit when figuring out commit afb93fac803fbab7 -
which helped a bit (this was setting up an "in 1 second" coarse timer, 
which always got an extra second due to scheduling), but I'm sure there
is more room for improvement.

OTOH this is all tricky code, with client and server and tcp and udp
all intermixed.
