coroutine-lock: make CoMutex thread-safe

This uses the lock-free mutex described in the paper '"Blocking without
Locking", or LFTHREADS: A lock-free thread library' by Gidenstam and
Papatriantafilou.  The same technique is used in OSv, and in fact
the code is essentially a conversion to C of OSv's code.

[Added missing coroutine_fn in tests/test-aio-multithread.c.
