Subject: [PATCH] Reconnect FCM listener after it dies instead of hanging
 forever

FcmPushClient shuts itself down after 3 sequential connection errors
and never recovers. _listening was only ever set once, so nothing
noticed - every locate after a crash just hung on a push that would
never arrive, until the process was restarted by hand.
