base: safeguard entrypoint against double manage

This patch adds sanity checks to the RPC entrypoint that detect attempts
to manage or dissolve the same RPC object twice. This is not always a
bug. I.e., if RPC objects are implemented in the modern way where the
object manages/dissolves itself. As the generic framework code (in
particular root/component.h) cannot rely on this pattern, it has to
call manage/dissolve for session objects anyway. For modern session
objects, this double attempt would result in a serious error (double
insertion into the object pool's AVL tree).
