r22661: optimize the handling of directly triggered timed events:

- if someone adds a timed_event with a zero timeval
  we now avoid serval gettimeofday() calls and the
  event handler doesn't get the current time when it's
  called, instead we also pass a zero timeval

- this also makes sure multiple timed events with a zero timeval
  are processed in the order there're added.

the little benchmark shows that processing 2000000 directly timed events
is now much faster, while avoiding syscalls at all!
