Only the xmlrpc server needs pickled events. Use the function names
to signify this requirement.

The recent change to Queue up events before the UI is spawned (in
26eda93337) broke the xmlrpc server because the
uievent implementation of BBUIEventQueue expects pickled strings for its
queue_event() method.
This is because the RPC exposed event.send() method must accept pickled
strings, but for xmlrpc event.send() is just mapped to queue_event().
Work around this by adding a send_event method which unpickles strings and
hands them off to queue_event() which can then be used for the remapping.

This version uses a thread rather than a process, to avoid problems with
waitpid handling. This gives slightly less overall build time reduction than
the separate process for it did (this reduces a -c compile coreutils-native by
about 3 seconds, while the process reduced it by 7 seconds), however this time
is quite insignificant relative to a typical build.
The biggest issue with non-backgrounded syncing is the perceived delay before
work begins, and this resolves that without breaking anything, or so it seems.
