[arbiter] close sockets on shutdown

Close all the listeners when the arbiter shuts down. By doing so,
workers can close the socket at the beginning of a graceful shut
down thereby informing the operating system that the socket can
be cleaned up. With this change, graceful exits with such workers
will refuse new connections while draining, allowing load balancers
to respond more quickly and avoiding leaving connections dangling
in the listen backlog, unaccepted.
