// Allowing the user to interrupt a script is not entirely trivial.
// Imagine the following script, that is run in an IDB that uses
// an IDAPython processor module (important!) :
// ---
// while True:
//     gen_disasm_text(dtext, ea, ea + 4, False)
// ---
// This script will call the processor module's out/outop functions in
// order to generate the text. If the processor module behaves
// correctly (i.e., doesn't take forever to generate said text), if the
// user presses 'Cancel' once the wait dialog box shows, what we want
// to cancel is _this_ script above: we don't want to interrupt the
// processor module while it's doing its thing!
// In order to do that, we will have to remember the time-of-entry of
// various entry points:
//  - idapython_plugin_t::extlang_compile_file
//  - IDAPython_RunStatement
//  - ... and more importantly in this case:
//  - idapython_plugin_t::extlang_call_method (called by the IDA kernel to generate text)
//
// Of course, in case the processor module's out/outop misbehaves, we still
// want the ability to cancel that operation. The following code allows for
// that, too.
