worker: prevent event loop starvation through MessagePorts
Limit the number of messages processed without interruption on a
given `MessagePort` to prevent event loop starvation, but still
make sure that all messages are emitted that were already in the
queue when emitting began.

This aligns the behaviour better with the web.
