fix: concurrency TypeError on identical resume times

When multiple tasks are scheduled with identical resume_time values,
heapq.heappush attempts to compare ExecutableWithState objects to break
the tie, causing a TypeError since ExecutableWithState doesn't implement
`__lt__`. This fix adds a monotonically increasing counter as a tie-breaker
in the heap tuple structure.

Changes:
- Update _pending_resumes type hint to include counter: tuple[float, int, ExecutableWithState]
- Add _schedule_counter initialization in `__init__`
- Modify schedule_resume() to include counter in heap tuple and increment after each schedule
- Update heappop unpacking in _timer_loop to handle 3-tuple
- Add missing _shutdown Event initialization

The counter ensures deterministic FIFO ordering when timestamps collide,
preventing object comparison while maintaining predictable execution order.

Tests added to verify:
- No TypeError with identical timestamps
- Counter increments correctly
- FIFO ordering is maintained for same-timestamp tasks

closes #271
