* Added a way to notify a Module that it's been attached to a ProcessThread.
The benefit of this is to give the module a way to wake up the thread
when it needs work to happen on the worker thread, immediately.
Today, module instances are typically registered with a process thread
outside the control of the modules themselves. I.e. they typically
don't know about the process thread they're attached to.
* Improve ProcessThread's WakeUp algorithm to not call TimeUntilNextProcess
when a WakeUp call is requested. This is an optimization for the above
case which avoids the module having to acquire a lock or do an interlocked
operation before calling WakeUp(), which would ensure the module's
TimeUntilNextProcess() implementation would return 0.

* Add a new WakeUp method that gives a module a chance to be called back right away on the worker thread.
* Wrote unit tests for the class.
* Significantly reduce the amount of locking.
- ProcessThreadImpl itself does a lot less locking.
- Reimplemented the way we keep track of when to make calls to Process.
This reduces the amount of calls to TimeUntilNextProcess and since most implementations of that function grab a lock, this means less locking.
* Renamed ProcessThread::CreateProcessThread to ProcessThread::Create.
* Added thread checks for Start/Stop. Threading model of other functions is now documented.
* We now log an error if an implementation of TimeUntilNextProcess returns a negative value (some implementations do, but the method should only return a positive nr of ms).
* Removed the DestroyProcessThread method and instead force callers to use scoped_ptr<> to maintain object lifetime.
