BUG/MAJOR: peers: fix partial message decoding

Another bug in the peers message parser was uncovered by last commit
1dfd4f106 ("BUG/MEDIUM: peers: fix decoding of multi-byte length in
stick-table messages"): the function return on incomplete message does
not check if the channel has a pending close before deciding to return
0. It did not hurt previously because the loop calling co_getblk() once
per character would have depleted the buffer and hit the end, causing
<0 to be returned and matching the condition. But now that we process
at once what is available this cannot be relied on anymore and it's
now clearly visible that the final check is missing.

What happens when this strikes is that if a peer connection breaks in
the middle of a message, the function will return 0 (missing data) but
the caller doesn't check for the closed buffer, subscribes to reads,
and the applet handler is immediately called again since some data are
still available. This is detected by the loop prevention and the process
dies complaining that an appctx is spinning.

This patch simply adds the check for closed channel. It must be
backported to the same versions as the fix above.
