IPC::Connection::UniqueID is not possible to use in thread safe manner

The whole idea should probably just be removed.

IPC::Connection::UniqueID is implemented for multi-threaded purposes, but it contains id to instance map maintenance in destructor which is not sound.

Also the comments around IPC::Connection::connection are just wrong. It says the function is not used from multiple threads, but the comments were added in a comment that explicitly added functionality to use it from multiple threads.
