tdf#100092: Deterministic scheduling to prevent unpredictable behavior.
Low priority idles can fire more or less randomly, and consequently two consequent runs of LibreOffice differ in the amount of the idles that have been performed during an operation. This commit adds a possibility to turn on a 'deterministic mode' where two subsequent runs of LibreOffice trigger about the same amount of events when they perform the same set of operations.
