/**
  @ingroup group_components_services_inventory
 
  The Scheduler queueing interface.
 
  This is a service that will allow registering a callback to be called
  every X seconds.
 
  Each callback has a name. And a comment for the DBA to check.
 
  A caller registers a callback together with its argument and gets a handle
  back. The callback will be put in rotation immediately and will be called
  after the defined interval. And it will keep being called until it's
  unregisterered using the handle.
 
  Passing an argument is useful if you are to reuse the callback function
  to operate on many different states through registering it in multiple
  scheduled events.
  Having the argument passed down from the registering code to the callback
  saves the need of the callback to consult a global structure in a multi-
  thread safe fashion.
 
  @warning Keep the runnable function *SHORT*! Or design a way for it to be
  graciously shut down through a flag inside the argument.
 
  To use it one would do something like this:
 
  @code
  bool sheduled_callback(mysql_scheduler_runnable_handle handle, void *arg) {
     int *ctr = reinterpret_cast<std::atomic<int> *>(arg);
     *ctr++;
  }
 
  REQUIRES_SERVICE(mysql_scheduler);
 
  int caller() {
     std::atomic<int> data= 0;
     mysql_scheduler_runnable_handle handle = nullptr;
     mysql_service_mysql_scheduler->create(
       &handle, sheduled_callback,
       (void *)&data,
       "gizmo", "This is a sheduled task to call gizmo",
       10);
 
     ....
 
     mysql_service_mysql_scheduler->destroy(handle);
     handle = nullptr;
  }
