Why not always use TLS, even in user-mode?

To avoid TLS waste; user-mode uses a single TCGContext,
so a single copy of these variables is all that's needed because
code generation is serialized with a lock.

If in user-mode we just have a few threads it'd be no big deal,
but apps can easily spawn thousands of threads.
