Every rugnux worker waiting for an image called ImageBuffer::GetImage every
millisecond, and GetStatus every 100 polls. Each call takes the buffer's mutex
and scans every slot, so sixteen waiting workers contended with the forward
threads for the lock they put the images in under (GetImageSlot, ReadyToSend).
Now one waiting thread at a time asks the buffer, at most every 2 ms, with a
single GetStatus, and notes the images it holds in a per-reader bitmap; the
other waiters sleep on a condition variable and are woken when it is
refreshed or the collection ends. GetImage is called once, for an image known
to be there (or given up on). MAX_IMAGE_LAG and Ended() mean what they did.
ImageBuffer itself is unchanged.
The test gains eight readers waiting at once.
