[server] Introduce an `has_scheduler` method on Repository
This is to be used by client application to determine if looping tasks may be
registered in the current process. By checking this, one will avoid the
warning in looping_task method when the repository has no scheduler.
[server] Warn instead of failing when a looping task is registered and repo has no scheduler
We should provide a way for client code to detect if they should register the
looping task or not. See next patch for that.
