Motivation / Problem
See #8874. Dumping many rescannewgrf commands onto the console will, in the old situation, drop many rescans without notifying the user.
Description
Check whether a NewGRF scan is running before actually requesting a new one. The function to request the scan will return true when a scan was triggered and false when one was already running. In case one was already running, show a warning.
Limitations
Really want to know? ;)
