Protect the reschedule queue with a seperate lock to fix a backend deadlock.
Fixes a deadlock in mythbackend caused when a reschedule request occurs
immedately prior to a recording starting.

The recorder thread locks the scheduler when starting a recording. The pending
reschedule request handled in the event loop waits for the scheduler lock to be
released blocking the event loop. The backend is now stopped from handling any
further events or protocol requests, meanwhile the recorder is waiting on
events to be processed before it will release the lock resulting in an
irrecoverable deadlock (or hang) and the failure of the recording.

This deadlock was more likely to be triggered for users of EIT because it will
ask for a reschedule every 5 minutes in addition to any reschedules triggered
through other means.
