Queues used for communication between async threads and scheduler threads
have been replaced with lock-free queues.
Drivers using the driver_async functionality are not automatically locked
to the system anymore, and can be unloaded as any dynamically linked in
driver.
Scheduling of ready async jobs is now also interleaved in between other
jobs. Previously all ready async jobs was performed at once.

A number of memory allocation optimizations have been implemented. Most
optimizations reduce contention caused by synchronization between
threads during allocation and deallocation of memory. Most notably:
* Synchronization of memory management in scheduler specific allocator
instances has been rewritten to use lock-free synchronization.
* Synchronization of memory management in scheduler specific
pre-allocators has been rewritten to use lock-free synchronization.
* The 'mseg_alloc' memory segment allocator now use scheduler specific
instances instead of one instance. Apart from reducing contention
this also ensures that memory allocators always create memory
segments on the local NUMA node on a NUMA system.

epoll on Linux has been seen to sometimes trigger unexpected
events. Most of the time these events are filtered by erl_check_io,
but may slip up to the driver in cases when fd's are reused.
Also made clear in driver docs that spurious events may happen.

The testcase core dunmped. Also made sure the key could actually store
long integers in driver_async (which is more of a cosmetic change).

Driver threads, such as async threads, using <seealso
marker="erl_driver#ErlDrvPDL">port data locks</seealso> peeked at the port
status field without proper locking when looking up the driver queue.
