rdb e04ddbef9a pipeline: fix multithreaded render pipeline deadlock
This deadlock happens when another thread holds a cycler lock and then attempts to call Pipeline::remove_cycler() while Pipeline::cycle() is running on the main thread.

The fix for this problem is threefold:
* Allow remove_cycler (and add_cycler) to be called while a cycle is in progress, by introducing a second lock
* Let cycle() not block if a dirty cycler can't be locked, instead trying other cyclers first
* Adding a way to let remove_cycler() check whether a cycler is currently in use by the main thread, and yielding if so
