3.x: Add fair mode overload to Schedulers.from(Executor)

[akarnokd]

The default Schedulers.from implementation uses an eager approach to execute tasks on the underlying Executor which can lead to excessive thread occupation on its own, even if operators use buffering/prefetch of 1.

This PR introduces a new overload with a fairness option so that tasks are submitted to the Executor in a non-overlapping and FIFO manner one by one.

In addition, the scheduler retention tests have been cleaned up and reworked to not wait unnecessarily long for the GC to finish.
