I did not find a way to do this safely without a mutex per threaded_context.

This is infrastructure to improve our async r/w result handling and latency.
The pthreadpool signalling goes through a pipe. This has downsides: The main
event loop has to go through a read on the pipe before it can ship the result.
Also, it is not guaranteed by poll/epoll that the pthreadpool signal pipe is
handled with top priority. When an async pread/pwrite has finished, we should
immediately ship the result to the client, not waiting for anything else.
This patch enables tevent_immediate structs as job signalling. This means a
busy main tevent loop will handle the threaded job completion before any timed
or file descriptor events. Opposite to Jeremy's tevent_thread_proxy this is
done by a modification of the main event loop by looking at a linked list under
a central mutex.
Regarding performance: In a later commit I've created a test that does nothing
but fire one immediate over and over again. If you add a phread_mutex_lock and
unlock pair in the immediate handler, you lose roughly 25% of rounds per
second, so it is measurable. It is questionable that will be measurable in the
real world, but to counter concerns activation of immediates needs to go
through a new struct tevent_threaded_context. Only if such a
tevent_threaded_context exists for a tevent context, the main loop takes the
hit to look at the mutex'ed list of finished jobs.
This patch by design does not care about talloc hierarchies. The idea is that
the main thread owning the tevent context creates a chunk of memory and
prepares the tevent_immediate indication job completion. The main thread hands
the memory chunk together with the immediate as a job description over to a
helper thread. The helper thread does its job and upon completion calls
tevent_threaded_schedule_immediate with the already-prepared immediate. From
that point on memory ownership is again transferred to the main thread.
