Provide feedback while loading project workspaces

Mantid looks like it freezes when loading workspaces for a project because this is done in the UI thread. We should offload this to the background and keep the UI responsive instead.

Would it be possible to do the same for file saving.

The appropriate change seems to be [here](​https://github.com/mantidproject/mantid/blob/11503_feedback_while_loading_projects/Code/Mantid/MantidPlot/src/Mantid/MantidUI.cpp#L3473).
