The cam option --capture=N is suppose to only capture N requests. But if
the processing done for each request is large (such as writing it to a
slow disk) the current implementation could queue more than N requests
before the exit condition is detected and capturing stopped.
Solve this by only queueing N requests while still waiting for N
requests to complete before exiting.

Cam uses libevent to deal with threads and idle loop while still
implementing its own event queue. This creates issues when the event
loop is terminated as it might get stuck in the idle loop if exit() is
called while the thread is busy with dispatchCalls().
Solve this by removing the custom event execution and instead injecting
the calls as events to the base event loop.
