Add functor-taking overload of CallAfter().

This is a generalization of the existing method-calling overloads.

+         Calling this function on an object schedules an asynchronous call to
+         the functor specified as CallAfter() argument at a (slightly) later
+         time. This is useful when processing some events as certain actions
+         typically can't be performed inside their handlers, e.g. you shouldn't
+         show a modal dialog from a mouse click event handler as this would
+         break the mouse capture state -- but you can call a function showing
+         this message dialog after the current event handler completes.
+
+         Notice that it is safe to use CallAfter() from other, non-GUI,
+         threads, but that the method will be always called in the main, GUI,
+         thread context.
+
+         This overload is particularly useful in combination with C++11 lambdas:
