fix: terminate unused Redis connections on schema update (backport #7319)

[carodewig]

The router performs a 'hot reload' whenever it detects a schema update. During this reload, it effectively instantiates a new internal router, warms it up (optional), redirects all traffic to this new router, and drops the old internal router.

This PR fixes a bug in that drop process where the Redis connections are never told to terminate, even though the Redis client pool is dropped. This leads to an ever-increasing number of inactive Redis connections, which eats up memory.

The fix is simply to spawn a task which calls quit on the client pool within a Drop implementation.

TODO:

• I'm really not sure how to do unit/integration testing on this. I've performed manual testing of the fix by sending repeated schema updates - the fix shows no Redis client count growth (unlike on dev or 1.x).
• Write up a changeset.
