Commit 97be153858b4cd175cbe7862b8e1624bf22ab98a (clang: Add
annotations for thread safety check.) defined 'struct ovs_mutex'
variable in 'atomic_flag' in 'ovs-atomic-pthreads.h'. This
casued "mutex: has incomplete type" error in compilation when
'ovs-atomic-pthreads.h' is included.
This commit goes back to use 'pthread_mutex_t' for that variable
and adds test for the 'atomic_flag' related functions.

This commit adds annotations for thread safety check. And the
check can be conducted by using -Wthread-safety flag in clang.

In C, one can do preprocessor tricks by making a macro expansion include
the macro's own name. We actually used this in the tree to automatically
provide function arguments, e.g.:
int f(int x, const char *file, int line);
#define f(x) f(x, __FILE__, __LINE__)
...
f(1); /* Expands to a call like f(1, __FILE__, __LINE__); */
However it's somewhat confusing, so this commit stops using that trick.

pthread_once() is portable but it does not allow passing any parameters to
the initialization function, which is often inconvenient, because it means
that the function can only access data declared at file scope. This commit
introduces an alternative with a more convenient interface.

The only tricky part here is that I'm throwing in annotations to allow
"sparse" to report unbalanced locking.
