pulsecore: Reference count mempools

In future commits, server-wide SHMs will be replaced with per-client
ones that will be dynamically created and freed according to clients
connections open and close.

Meanwhile, current PA design does not guarantee that the per-client
mempool blocks are referenced only by client-specific objects.

Thus reference count the pools and let each memblock inside the pool
itself, or just attached to it, increment the pool's refcount upon
allocation. This way, per-client mempools will only be freed when no
further component in the system holds any references to its blocks.
