Each type of scheduler implements its own static scheduler_t object and
returns a reference to it.
This commit also makes it a const pointer that is it can only change inside
the scheduler type subsystem but not outside for extra protection.

Instead, add wrappers to do the needed action the different scheduler needs
with the libevent object.

This option is a list of possible scheduler type tor can use ordered by
priority. Its default value is "KIST,KISTLite,Vanilla" which means that KIST
will be used first and if unavailable will fallback to KISTLite and so on.

It is possible that tor was compiled with KIST support but the running kernel
has no support for it. In that case, fallback to a naive approach and flag
that we have no kernel support.
At this commit, if the kernel support is disabled, there are no ways to come
back from it other than restarting tor with a kernel that supporst KIST.

Add a detection for the KIST scheduler in our build system and set
HAVE_KIST_SUPPORT if available.
Adapt the should use kist function with this new compile option.

- HT_FOREACH_FN defined in an additional place because nickm did that
in an old kist prototype
- Make channel_more_to_flush mockable for future sched tests
- Add empty scheduler_{vanilla,kist}.c files and put in include.am
