Subject: Support more than one CScheduler thread for serial clients

This will be used by CValidationInterface soon.

This requires a bit of work as we need to ensure that most of our
callbacks happen in-order (to avoid synchronization issues in
wallet) - we keep our own internal queue and push things onto it,
scheduling a queue-draining function immediately upon new
callbacks.
