dm: enhence the mevent API

There is one race issue between mevent callback (which is called
in mevent_dispatch thread) and mevent_delete (which could be called
in dev thread). And the callback is called after mevent_delete.

libevent have the exactly same issue. The issue is decripted here:
https://github.com/libevent/libevent/blob/master/whatsnew-2.1.txt

The fixing is:
We introduce a teardown callback to mevent and make sure there is
no race issue between callback and teardown call.

This patch updates the mevent API and the caller as well.
