migration/colo.c: Use event instead of semaphore
If multiple packets miscompare in a short timeframe, the semaphore value will be increased multiple times. This causes multiple checkpoints even if one would be sufficient. Fix this by using a event instead of a semaphore for triggering checkpoints. Now, checkpoint requests will be ignored until the checkpoint event is sent to colo-compare (which releases the miscompared packets).
