Continue fixing deadlock of previous commit, this time occuring when waiting for 'cleanup' python runtime call to finish. Now 'init' and 'cleanup' python runtime calls are called directly from main thread, and aren't anymore invoked in the context of wxMainloop and/or twisted reactor.

    Xenomai 3 (at least for version <= 3.0.6) do not handle properly dlclose
    of shared objects whose dlopen did trigger xenomai_init.
    As a workaround, this pre-loads xenomai libraries that need to be
    initialized and call xenomai_init once for all.

    Xenomai auto init of libs MUST be disabled (see --auto-init-solib in xeno-config)
