* Add a temporary thread observer and listen for the "AfterProcessNextEvent"
* notification. Once the notification is received, remove the temporary thread
* observer and call aCallback.
* In practice, this calls aCallback immediately after the current thread is
* done with running and releasing recently popped event from thread's event
* queue.
* If called multiple times, all the callbacks will be executed, in the
* order in which RunAfterProcessingCurrentEvent() was called.
* Use this method if you need to dispatch the same or some other runnable to
* another thread in a way which prevents any race conditions (for example
* unpredictable releases of objects).
* This method should be used only in existing code which can't be easily
* converted to use MozPromise which doesn't have the problem with
* unpredictable releases of objects, see:
* https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/4582d908c17fbf7924f5699609fe4a12c28ddc4a/xpcom/threads/MozPromise.h#866
*
* Note: Calling this method from a thread pool is not supported since thread
* pools don't fire the "AfterProcessNextEvent" notification. The method has
* a diagnostic assertion for that so any calls like that will be caught
* in builds with enabled diagnostic assertions. The callback will never
* get executed in other builds, such as release builds. The limitation can
* be removed completely when thread pool implementation gets support for firing
* the "AfterProcessNextEvent".
