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'.
