Now that our Lookup cache mutex is no longer recursive, we can safely
use a shared_mutex instead. The problem with a c++ std::shared_mutex is
that it doesn't guarantee any form of priority, so tens of thousands of
read-locks per second can cause a writer to never acquire the lock, or
take too much time.
The bad news is that C++ doesn't provide us a primitive with
write-priority, so we need to construct our own that is still compatible
with Linux futex. So this is what we do.
- Windows: Uses an SRWLock instead.
- Only way for WINE to provide us a futex fallback that priorities
write-priority without stampeding.
