* thread, mainly the player thread.
* The worker_execute() function will trigger a callback from the worker thread.
* Before returning the function will copy the argument given, so the caller
* does not need to preserve them. However, if the argument contains pointers to
* data, the caller must either make sure that the data remains valid until the
* callback (which can free it), or make sure the callback does not refer to it.
*
* @param cb the function to call from the worker thread
* @param cb_arg arguments for callback
* @param arg_size size of the arguments given
* @param delay how much in seconds to delay the execution
