2021-03-22	Threadpool: pre-emtively dequeue items after enqueing	David Oberhollenzer
	When we already hold the mutex, try to pre-emtively dequeue items into a "safe queue". When actually asked to dequeue, take blocks from there first and avoid having to enter the critical section if possible. Signed-off-by: David Oberhollenzer <david.oberhollenzer@sigma-star.at>
2021-03-21	Add a thread pool implementation to libutil	David Oberhollenzer
	The thread pool enforces ordering of items during dequeue similar to the already existing implementation in libsqfs. The idea is to eventually pull this functionality out of the block processor and turn it into a cleaner, separately tested module. The thread pool is implemented as an abstract interface, so we can have multiple implementations around, including the serial fallback implementation which we can then always test, irregardless of the compile config and run through static analysis as well.
