Several concurrent requests can step on each others toes while catching HTTP 401s: one of them will catch 401 and cause the re-auth normally (by invalidating the APIContext via the Vault), while others will be left with the closed session and will not be able even to try executing their retried requests to get that 401. Instead, they will get a generic RuntimeError("Session is closed") from aiohttp.
The concurrent requests are highly likely if the API returned some other errors previously, so that the requests went into the back-off sleep for a few seconds before retrying.
A proper fix would be to retry with a new session, but we currently have no mechanisms to replace the session in a context object (safely). Hence, escalate and try again with new credentials (loosing the retry counter as a side effect).
TODO: Requires tests to simulate the situation — if the hypothesis is correct.
Presumably fixes #980.
