Subject: Client: Fix stuttering when the GUI thread is busy

When we did invokeMethod for handling the frame callbacks, we had to wait for
the GUI thread to finish whatever it's doing before we would stop blocking.

Fix it by clearing the frame callback timer and stop blocking immediately,
while delaying the rest of the work until it can be run on the other thread.

Fixes: QTBUG-76397
