Add attribute_warn_unused_result to ast_taskprocessor_push,
ast_taskprocessor_push_local and ast_threadpool_push. This will help
ensure we perform the necessary cleanup upon failure.

The threadpool_auto_increment test fails infrequently for a couple of
reasons
* The threadpool listener was notified of fewer tasks being pushed than
were actually pushed
* The "was_empty" flag was set to an unexpected value.
The problem is that the test pushes three tasks into the threadpool.
Test expects the threadpool to essentially gather those three tasks, and
then distribute those to the threadpool threads. It also expects that as
the tasks are pushed in, the threadpool listener is alerted immediately
that the tasks have been pushed. In reality, a task can be distributed
to the threadpool threads quicker than expected, meaning that the
threadpool has already emptied by the time each subsequent task is
pushed. In addition, the internal threadpool queue can be delayed so
that the threadpool listener is not alerted that a task has been pushed
even after the task has been executed.
From the test's point of view, there's no way to be able to predict
exactly the order that task execution/listener notifications will occur,
and there is no way to know which listener notifications will indicate
that the threadpool was previously empty.
For this reason, the test has been updated to only check the things it
can check. It ensures that all tasks get executed, that the threads go
idle after the tasks are executed, and that the listener is told the
proper number of tasks that were pushed.

This change makes the thread_timeout_thrash unit test wait for
each task to complete. This fixes the problem where the test would
prematurely end when all threads were gone and a new one had to be
started to handle the last task. It also increases the thrasing as
it is now more likely for each task to encounter the above scenario.
This also fixes a memory leak where the data for each task was not
being freed.

This change adds handling of dead worker threads when moving them
to be active. When this happens the worker thread is removed from
both the active and idle threads container. If no threads are able
to be moved to active then the pool grows as configured.
A unit test has also been added which thrashes the idle timeout
and thread activation to exploit any race conditions between the
two.

Analyzing the code shows that the unit test summary and description
strings should not end with a new-line character. Where these strings are
used in the code a new-line is provided for output.

This patch adds the ability to create a serializer from a thread pool. A
serializer is a ast_taskprocessor with the same contract as a default
taskprocessor (tasks execute serially) except instead of executing out
of a dedicated thread, execution occurs in a thread from a
ast_threadpool. Think of it as a lightweight thread.
While it guarantees that each task will complete before executing the
next, there is no guarantee as to which thread from the pool individual
tasks will execute. This normally only matters if your code relys on
thread specific information, such as thread locals.
This patch also fixes a bug in how the 'was_empty' parameter is computed
for the push callback, and gets rid of the unused 'shutting_down' field.

Unfortunately, this required a taskprocessor listener change that makes listener allocation
utterly silly. I'm going to change the scheme so that allocation of taskprocessor listeners
is done internally within taskprocessor code. This will make it parallel with threadpool
code, which is a good thing.

The only test added so far is an idle thread timeout
option. This will greatly aid threadpool users who wish
to maintain a threadpool by allowing for idle threads to
die out as necessary.
Test passes.

This helps tests to pass more often than before.
They are far less likely to queue extra processes
into the control taskprocessor since they are prevented
once the threadpool begins to shut down.

This one involves shrinking the threadpool in such
a way that both idle and active threads are affected.
This test made me re-realize why the zombie state exists,
so I re-added it. We don't want to clog up the control
taskprocessor by waiting on active threads to complete
what they are doing. Instead, we mark them as zombies so
that when they are done, they can clean themselves up
properly.
Without the zombie state available, the new test actually
will deadlock.

The new thread creation test fails because Asterisk locks up
while trying to lock a taskprocessor.
While trying to debug that, I found a race condition during taskprocessor
creation where a default taskprocessor listener could try to operate on
a partially started taskprocessor. This was fixed by adding a new callback
to taskprocessor listeners.
Then while testing that change, I found some bugs in the taskprocessor
tests where I was not properly unlocking when done with a lock. Scoped
locks have spoiled me a bit.
I still have not figured out why the threadpool thread creation test
is locking up.
