les: UDP pre-negotiation of available server capacity (#22183)

This PR implements the first one of the "lespay" UDP queries which
is already useful in itself: the capacity query. The server pool is making
use of this query by doing a cheap UDP query to determine whether it is
worth starting the more expensive TCP connection process.
