melanie witt d218f0df65 Stop overwriting thread local context in ClientRouter
In commit 4df0869, a ClientRouter was added to cache client connections
to cell message queues. The periodic task for removing stale clients
is called with an empty RequestContext, but this overwrites the copy
in thread local storage unless overwrite=False is specified.

This adds overwrite=False to the empty RequestContext to prevent it
from overwriting the thread local context. All of the other periodic
tasks use get_admin_context() which also creates a RequestContext with
overwrite=False.

Closes-Bug: #1627838
