Unsafe temporary workaround for LFS checkout lost performance
This is a temporary workaround in order to avoid the lost of performance with LFS checkout. The change is limited to the processing of callbacks from Workers that leverage threaded libgit2 functions. Basically what it does is allowing the callbacks from executorEventsQueue to be queued in jsThreadCallbackQueue without waiting for the current one to end. It is unsafe because with threaded libgit2 functions there is a potential risk of deadlock if the callbacks need to lock an object. This commit will be reverted when nodegit-lfs is integrated into nodegit.

// With the threadpool rewrite, a Worker will execute its callbacks with
13+
// objects temporary unlock (to prevent deadlocks), and we'll wait until
14+
// the callback is done to lock them back again (to make sure it's thread-safe).

// LFS checkout lost performance after this, and the proper way to fix it is
16+
// to integrate nodegit-lfs into nodegit. Until this is implemented, a
17+
// temporary workaround has been applied, which affects only Workers leveraging
18+
// threaded libgit2 functions (at the moment only checkout) and does the
19+
// following:
20+
// - do not wait for the current callback to end, so that it can send the
21+
// next callback to the main JS thread.
22+
// - do not temporary unlock the objects, since they would be locked back
23+
// again before the callback is executed.
