This patch makes QEMUClock->active_timers list iteration thread-safe. With additional patches, this will allow threads to use timers without holding the QEMU global mutex.
The qemu_next_alarm_deadline() function was restructured to reduce code duplication, which would have gotten worse due to the extra locking calls. The new qemu_next_clock_deadline() function does the work of updating the nearest deadline.
