throttle-groups: fix hang when group member leaves

Throttle groups consist of members sharing one throttling state
(including bps/iops limits).  Round-robin scheduling is used to ensure
fairness.  If a group member already has a timer pending then other
groups members do not schedule their own timers.  The next group member
will have its turn when the existing timer expires.

A hang may occur when a group member leaves while it had a timer
scheduled.  Although the code carefully removes the group member from
the round-robin list, it does not schedule the next member.  Therefore
remaining members continue to wait for the removed member's timer to
expire.

This patch schedules the next request if a timer is pending.
Unfortunately the actual bug is a race condition that I've been unable
to capture in a test case.

Sometimes drive2 hangs when drive1 is removed from the throttling group:

  $ qemu ... -drive if=none,id=drive1,cache=none,format=qcow2,file=data1.qcow2,iops=100,group=foo \
             -device virtio-blk-pci,id=virtio-blk-pci0,drive=drive1 \
             -drive if=none,id=drive2,cache=none,format=qcow2,file=data2.qcow2,iops=10,group=foo \
             -device virtio-blk-pci,id=virtio-blk-pci1,drive=drive2
  (guest-console1)# fio -filename /dev/vda 4k-seq-read.job
  (guest-console2)# fio -filename /dev/vdb 4k-seq-read.job
  (qmp) {"execute": "block_set_io_throttle", "arguments": {"device": "drive1","bps": 0,"bps_rd": 0,"bps_wr": 0,"iops": 0,"iops_rd": 0,"iops_wr": 0}}
