Stop the streamer without sending on closed queues (closes #34)

Stop cancels the stream and closes the handler queues under the streamer's write lock, but the read loop only checked for a stop before parsing each line. A stop landing after that check made the loop send the message to a closed queue and panic. The loop now checks again under the read lock it already takes before handing the message to the queues, and returns if the stream was stopped.

Stop also clears its cancel function and returns early when there is none, so a second call no longer closes the queues again, as its comment already promised.

The new test calls Stop from the raw handler, which runs in exactly that gap, and then calls Stop a second time.

+- 2026-09-28: stopping the daemon while the feed is flowing no longer

 - 2026-09-28: `docker stop` no longer kills the daemon 2 seconds after the
   stop signal: the entrypoint switches to the `routewatch` user with
   `setpriv` instead of `runuser`, so the daemon receives the signal itself
