[issue13215] multiprocessing Manager.connect() aggressively retries refused connections

Here's a patch removing the automatic retry on ECONNREFUSED: I tested it on Linux and other Unices, and it seems to work just fine without this hammering.
Note that there's a similar mechanism for Windows (ERROR_PIPE_BUSY), but it seems to be necessary there (test_multiprocessing blows up without this). Note that I'd rather only apply this to default (not 2.7 and 3.2), since this is more of a behavior change than a bug fix.
