[geary/wip/ubuntu-1804-network-unreachable: 1/2] Prevent circular refs using idle and timeout manager when running



commit f48170ae3828fc145129b54ae632f23e8e773ebc

    Prevent circular refs using idle and timeout manager when running
    
    If an IdleManager or TimeoutManager had been scheduled, it would not get
    destroyed until it was executed by the main loop, causing criticals
    if the objects enclosed by its callback had been destroyed.
    
    This adds a weak reference to the manager object itself when scheduling
    on the main loop, so it can get safely dropped.
