Comment:

 Needs a changes file.

 I'd rather have a real fix for #23570 than the sleep() call here, if at
 all possible.
 Maybe we should just fflush() everything?

 I think that rather than having main.c call hibernate_go_dormant, we
 should extract the relevant part of hibernate_go_dormant into a new
 function, and have main.c call that.

 Is the connection_mark_for_close() in hibernate_go_dormant enough here?
 It only marks the connections; it doesn't necessarily close them.

 The commit message says `Implements #435`, but I don't think that's right?
