core: deadlock in chainmanager after posting RemovedTransactionEvent

This PR solves an issue with the chain manager posting a
`RemovedTransactionEvent`, the tx pool will try to
acquire the chainmanager lock which has previously been locked prior to
posting `RemovedTransactionEvent`. This results in a deadlock in the
core.
