medialib: acquire priority access for Control
Contrary to Get and List requests, which acquire the priority access
since 7ef4e1effe76ef9b33db0ca8f740c1b93cc6c8d9, not all Control requests
may acquire the priority access safely currently.
Indeed, some of them indirectly acquire the internal medialibrary mutex
(for example, MediaLibrary::reload() calls startDiscoverer()), which may
be locked by a non-priority caller.
Acquire priority access for Control requests which do not suffer from
this problem.
