    tdf#119856 vcl: Qt5/KDE5 RunInMainThread
    
    The problem with the current approach of transferring calls to the main
    thread with Q_EMIT signals is that if the code that should run in the
    main thread needs SolarMutex, then the non-main-thread must use
    SolarMutexReleaser - but then the main thread will run not only the call
    that is needed right now, but will potentially process all pending
    events, and the other thread hasn't prepared for that.
    
    We need the inter-thread feature of Qt::BlockingQueuedConnection and the
    non-queued feature of Qt::DirectConnection, but this combination doesn't
    appear to exist.
    
    So the SolarMutexReleaser needs to go - but then the main thread does
    need SolarMutex for some things, and hence we need to trick it into
    believing it has SolarMutex with the m_bNoYieldLock hack.
    
    Then it becomes apparent that the main thread may be blocked on either
    Qt events, which is fine, or on the SalYieldMutex's m_aMutex, which will
    never be released now.
    
    So the main thread must never block on m_aMutex; the alternative is to
    use the same approach as the osx code (and, in a somewhat different
    form, the svp code), and add some condition variables on which the main
    thread can block if it fails to acquire the m_aMutex immediately.
    
    It's even possible to do this in a somewhat generic way with lambdas.
    
    This does appear to work, but it makes the Q_EMIT approach entirely
    untenable, because now the main thread will be blocked on the condition
    variable and the non-main-thread will be blocked until the Qt event is
    processed.
