win32: replace custom mutex and condition variable with native primitives
The multithreaded TCG implementation exposed deadlocks in the win32
condition variables: as implemented, qemu_cond_broadcast waited on
receivers, whereas the pthreads API it was intended to emulate does
not. This was causing a deadlock because broadcast was called while
holding the IO lock, as well as all possible waiters blocked on the
same lock.
This patch replaces all the custom synchronisation code for mutexes
and condition variables with native Windows primitives (SRWlocks and
condition variables) with the same semantics as their POSIX
equivalents. To enable that, it requires a Windows Vista or newer host
OS.
