This patch adds a `blocking` to `tokio-threadpool`. This function serves
as a way to annotate sections of code that will perform blocking
operations. This informs the thread pool that an additional thread needs
to be spawned to replace the current thread, which will no longer be
able to process the work queue.
This patch integrate the new timer implementation with the runtime by
initializing a timer per worker thread. This allows minimizing the
amount of synchronization needed for using timers.
* Allow customizing the threadpool's parker
This patch allows the user of threadpool to customize how the worker
threads park themselves. This allows custom parking logic to be
injected. For example, this allows embedding a timer on each worker
thread.
* Call `park` instance every so often.
Since the `park` is now customizable, it might have logic that must be
called every so often. For example, a timer might have timeouts that it
must expire.
Currently, if a worker is very busy, it won't call into the `park`
instance. This patch changes this so that after every 32 task
invocations, `park` is called with a duration of zero.
