Allow read_object_file_extended() to be called by multiple threads
protecting it with a lock. The lock usage can be toggled with
enable_obj_read_lock() and disable_obj_read_lock().

Probably there are many spots in read_object_file_extended()'s call
chain that could be executed unlocked (and thus, in parallel). But, for
now, we are only interested in allowing parallel access to zlib
inflation. This is one of the sections where object reading spends most
of the time and it's already thread-safe. So, to take advantage of that,
the lock is released when entering it and re-acquired right after. We
may refine the lock to also exploit other possible parallel spots in the
future, but threaded zlib inflation should already give great speedups.

Note that add_delta_base_cache() was also modified to skip adding
already present entries to the cache. This wasn't possible before, but
now it is since phase I and phase III of unpack_entry() may execute
concurrently.
