FO: Check server validity before setting status
The list of resolved servers is allocated on the back end context and kept in the fo_service structure. However, a single request often resolves a server and keeps a pointer until the end of a request and only then gives feedback about the server based on the request result. This presents a big race condition in case the SRV resolution is used. When there are requests coming in in parallel, it is possible that an incoming request will invalidate a server until another request that holds a pointer to the original server is able to give a feedback. This patch simply checks if a server is in the list of servers maintained by a service before reading its status. https://fedorahosted.org/sssd/ticket/1364
