The early monitor iothread creation conflicts with the -daemonize option causing crashes at shutdown of a daemonized qemu instance. These patches will delay the creation to when a monitor using it is actually spawned.
While the second patch depends on the first one, the first is a consistency cleanup on its own, therefore split out. v2: This version incorporates Markus Armbruster's requested change to protect mon_iothread initialization by monitor_lock (and moves the variable declaration to reflect this), and adds a comments about monitor_init() expecting to be run in the main thread.
