libctrl: Add support for 'deferred control commands'
Sometimes a control interface command cannot be processed and responded immediately, but we need to process it asynchronously. In order to support this, we introduce the 'ctrl_cmd_def', which represents such a deferred command. It is created by the service implementing the command using ctrl_cmd_def_make(), and a response is later sent using ctrl_cmd_def_send(). ctrl_cmd_def_is_zombie() must be called to handle the case where the control connection has disconnected/died between receiving the command and sending the response.
