Fix race condition in the scheduler when deleting a running entry.

When scheduled tasks run, they are removed from the heap (or hashtab).
When a scheduled task is deleted, if the task can't be found in the
heap (or hashtab), an assertion is triggered. If DO_CRASH is enabled,
this assertion causes a crash.

The problem is, sometimes it just so happens that someone attempts
to delete a scheduled task at the time that it is running, leading
to a crash. This change corrects the issue by tracking which task
is currently running. If that task is attempted to be deleted,
then we mark the task, and then wait for the task to complete.
This way, we can be sure to coordinate task deletion and memory
freeing.
