* Added a way to notify a Module that it's been attached to a ProcessThread. The benefit of this is to give the module a way to wake up the thread when it needs work to happen on the worker thread, immediately. Today, module instances are typically registered with a process thread outside the control of the modules themselves. I.e. they typically don't know about the process thread they're attached to. * Improve ProcessThread's WakeUp algorithm to not call TimeUntilNextProcess when a WakeUp call is requested. This is an optimization for the above case which avoids the module having to acquire a lock or do an interlocked operation before calling WakeUp(), which would ensure the module's TimeUntilNextProcess() implementation would return 0.
