WM: Fix invalid memory access in wmTimer handling code. 2.93 version #105406

Timer management code often loops over the list of timers, calling
independant callbacks that end up freeing other timers in the list. That
would result in potentail access-after-free errors, as reported in #105160.

The typical identified scenario is wmTimer calling wmJob code, which
calls some of the job's callbacks (update or end e.g.), which call
WM_report, which removes and add another timer.

To address this issue on a general level, the deletion of timers is now
deferred, with the public API WM_event_remove_timer only marking the
timer for deletion, and the private new function
wm_window_delete_removed_timers effectively removing and deleting all
marked timers.

This implements design task #105369.

Pull Request #105380
