Pull request description:

  This PR:
  - gets rid of `boost::thread_group` in the `CCheckQueue` class
  - allows thread safety annotation usage in the `CCheckQueue` class
  - is alternative to #14464 (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18710#issuecomment-616618525, https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/18710#issuecomment-617291612)

  Also, with this PR (I hope) it could be easier to resurrect a bunch of brilliant ideas from #9938.

  Related: #17307
