The current interface allows you to create and initiate processors 
before or after scheduler::operator() has been called. Sometimes you 
even need to call create_processor() before and initiate_processor() 
afterwards. Sometimes you also want to reuse a state_machine that has 
terminated and therefore need to call initiate_processor() again. 
Therefore, if scheduler::operator() asserts that all created processors 
have also been initiated then this would preclude some legitimate 
real-world use cases and would also not catch the cases where a FSM has 
terminated after being initiated.
