tevent: optimize adding new timer events
As new timestamps typically get higher:-) it's better to traverse the existing list from the tail. This is not completely optimal, but it should be better than before. A second optimization could be done for zero timestamps, we would just remember the last_zero_timer, but that would change the internal ABI. Normally thatshould not be a poblem, but the Samba's source3/lib/events.c abuses tevent_internal.h from the current source tree, even if an external tevent.h is used. The other problem is that it makes use of tevent_common_add_timer() without using tevent_common_loop_timer_delay().
