batrick 2b3df5882f [NSE] Patch to add worker threads to NSE for scripts to use. Right ...

now a script is limited in parallelism to working on one socket at any
time. A script can now create a worker thread that will be capable of
doing work on sockets in parallel with the parent script. See [1] for
more information.

This patch also comes with condition variables that are similar to
POSIX condition variables. They are used in the same fashion as
NSE's mutexes (nmap.mutex).
