8229cc77c5 Wake up background threads on demand
This change allows every allocator conforming to PAI communicate that it
deferred some work for the future. Without it if a background thread goes into
indefinite sleep, there is no way to notify it about upcoming deferred work.

b8b8027f19 Allow PAI to calculate time until deferred work
Previously the calculation of sleep time between wakeups was implemented within
background_thread. This resulted in some parts of decay and hpa specific
logic mixing with background thread implementation. In this change, background
thread delegates this calculation to arena and it, in turn, delegates it to PAI.
The next step is to implement the actual calculation of time until deferred work
in HPA.

aaea4fd1e6 Add more documentation to decay.c
It took me a while to understand why some things are implemented the way they
are, so hopefully it will help future readers.

4b633b9a81 Clean up background thread sleep computation
Isolate the computation of purge interval from background thread logic and
move into more suitable file.

This better facilitates testing.
