    cluster/tier: make promotion and demotion independant

    Currently a main loop in tiering spawns promotion and demotion threads,
    and does a join to wait for them to complete. When one of the two
    threads takes a long time, the main thread waits for it
    before exiting the join. It may wait so long the scheduled time
    for the other thread is skipped. In the case of demotion, it may be
    a long time before another attempt. This patch fixes that by
    making the promotion and demotion activities independant. A side
    effect of this change is the logic is significantly simplified.
