Add minimal thread-safety to BFD
This patch provides some minimal thread-safety to BFD. The BFD client can request thread-safety by providing a lock and unlock function. The globals used during BFD creation (e.g., bfd_id_counter) are then locked, and the file descriptor cache is also locked. A function to clean up any thread-local data is now provided for BFD clients. * bfd-in2.h: Regenerate. * bfd.c (lock_fn, unlock_fn): New globals. (bfd_thread_init, bfd_thread_cleanup, bfd_lock, bfd_unlock): New functions. * cache.c (bfd_cache_lookup_worker): Use _bfd_open_file_unlocked. (cache_btell, cache_bseek, cache_bread, cache_bwrite): Lock and unlock. (cache_bclose): Add comment. (cache_bflush, cache_bstat, cache_bmmap): Lock and unlock. (_bfd_cache_init_unlocked): New function. (bfd_cache_init): Use it. Lock and unlock. (_bfd_cache_close_unlocked): New function. (bfd_cache_close, bfd_cache_close_all): Use it. Lock and unlock. (_bfd_open_file_unlocked): New function. (bfd_open_file): Use it. Lock and unlock. * doc/bfd.texi (BFD front end): Add Threading menu item. * libbfd.h: Regenerate. * opncls.c (_bfd_new_bfd): Lock and unlock. * po/bfd.pot: Regenerate.
