MultiplexedSocket: use incrementing channel number

'Birthday paradox' implies that if the two peers create channels
at the same time, there is a non-zero chance of collision even for
small amount of channels, because channel ids are 16 bits:
* >50% probability of collision with N=256
* >1% probability of collision with N=40
* 0.2% probability of collision with N=16

For this reason, use incrementing channel numbers,
but start at 0x8000 for the server and at 1 for the client.

This method guarantees 0-collision for
at least the first 2^15-1 channels opened each side,
and reduces the probability of collision
after that.
