Protect against running multiple Stream/Faye clients

Running multiple Faye clients leads to this bug:

https://github.com/GetStream/stream-js/issues/72

Which is very obscure and hard to debug. Wonder if we could provide a better error.

i believe this is related to #198: ~~take a look at ~~ after reading more carefully the code it looks like that the reference client doesn't care about about the the subscription.

@tschellenbach correct me if I wrong but AFAIK we observed this issue back when we were still using the JS implementation of Faye server-side and concluded that the problem was client-side

Yeah this is broken with the standard Faye server. ID generation is global, so if you start 2 clients you get clashes.
