log_enable_multithread() enables use of locks inside the
implementation. Lock use is disabled by default, this way only
multi-thread processes need to enable it and suffer related
complexity/performance penalties.
Locks are required around osmo_log_target_list and items inside it,
since targets can be used, modified and deleted by different threads
concurrently (for instance, user writing "logging disable" in VTY while
another thread is willing to write into that target).
Multithread apps and libraries aiming at being used in multithread apps
should update their code to use the locks introduced here when
containing code iterating over osmo_log_target_list explictly or
implicitly by obtaining a log_target (eg. osmo_log_vty2tgt()).
