erlang: Client refactor, part 1
- Client is no longer a separate process.
- Simplified constructors moved into another module.
- All functions and exceptions return the new client,
to allow for future statefulness in the client.
NOTE: With the new library and old gen-code, attempting to call a
nonexistent function will result in an exit.
TODO: fix docs and tests (tether test is not meaningful)
