uievent: fix queueing of events for xmlrpc before UI has loaded

The change to Queue up events before the UI is spawned broke the xmlrpc
server because the uievent implementation of BBUIEventQueue expects pickled
strings for its queue_event() method.
This is because the RPC exposed event.send() method must accept pickled
strings, but for xmlrpc event.send() is just mapped to queue_event(). Work
around this by adding a send_event method which unpickles strings and hands
them off to queue_event() which can then be used for the remapping.
