A server can close a connection while we're expecting a response. For example, the server may close the connection due to a keep-alive timeout. This results in a 502 response to the client. Log an error in this case, so that the administrator has a chance to adjust the keep-alive timeout on the ATS side to avoid this situation.

It would be good to have @bryancall look at this when he is back from PTO. I think we were considering moving away from error.log and transitioning content to diags.log.
That said, if that is not the case, I agree that these connection-level messages thematically fit error.log. If we're keeping error.log.
