libports: avoid acquiring global lock in message dispatch
* libports/interrupt-operation.c (ports_S_interrupt_operation): Update `cancel_threshold' using atomic operations. * libports/manage-multithread.c (internal_demuxer): Avoid taking the lock. * libports/ports.h (struct port_info): Mention that one needs atomic operations to access `cancel_threshold'.
