cd9f5e38f7 flush_queue: Fix task reordering bug, simplify code, allow value propagation
Previous version dit looping on post execution and signaling of waiters.
This could "race" with an op just finishing if task reordering happened.

This version simplifies the code significantly (and raises the question why
it was not written like this in the first place... Shame on me) by simpy
building a promise-dependency chain between _previous_ queue items and next
instead.

Also, the code now handles propagation of return value from the "Func" pre-op
to the "Post" op, with exceptions automatically handled.

4540036a01 Add "flush_queue" helper structure
Small utility to order operation->post operation
so that the "post" step is guaranteed to only be run
when all "post"-ops for lower valued keys (T) have been completed

This is a generalized utility mainly to be testable.
