Subject: [PATCH] Catch panics in worker thread to keep connection alive

Wrap user-provided closure execution in catch_unwind so that a
panic does not kill the worker thread and permanently destroy the
connection. The panicked operation still returns Error::Closed, but
subsequent operations continue to work.
