[x265] [PATCH] ThreadSafeInteger: change default lock into read write lock

With the two patches, I just do a simple test on my Windows PC, and I test
for several times and finally get the follow results:

./x265.exe --fps 30 --input-res 1280x720 /d/project/sharp/lol.yuv -o
test1.265
encoded 500 frames in 28.83s (17.34 fps), 1330.90 kb/s, Avg QP:34.94

./x265_withpatch.exe --fps 30 --input-res 1280x720 /d/project/sharp/lol.yuv
-o test2.265
encoded 500 frames in 28.14s (17.77 fps), 1330.90 kb/s, Avg QP:34.94

so just about 1% ~ 2% speed up on Windows in my test, but my test covers
little YUV sequence.
