Remove the need for the CrossThreadTask::CrossThreadTask(NoncopyableFunction<void ()>&) constructor

The purpose of CrossThreadTask is that users feed in a method and all the arguments, which are then copied as needed for cross-thread use.

By exposing a constructor that takes any callable function, one can create a "Cross thread task" that isn't really cross thread.

We added this for expediency while hacking on lambdas and dispatch methods, but its necessity should be removed.
