Rate-limit scheduling of work-events

In general, events are code handling some some condition, which is
scheduled when such condition happened and executed independently from
I/O loop. Work-events are a subgroup of events that are scheduled
repeatedly until some (often significant) work is done (e.g. feeding
routes to protocol). All scheduled events are executed during each
I/O loop iteration.

Separate work-events from regular events to a separate queue and
rate limit their execution to a fixed number per I/O loop iteration.
That should prevent excess latency when many work-events are
scheduled at one time (e.g. simultaneous reload of many BGP sessions).
