Add functions for mutex init, destroy, lock, unlock, trylock.

Windows does not have a static initializer. Initialization
is only done through InitializeCriticalSection(). To overcome this,
RTE_INIT_MUTEX macro is added to replace static initialization
of mutexes. The macro calls rte_thread_mutex_init().

Add unit tests to verify that the mutex correctly locks/unlocks
and protects the data. Check both static and dynamic mutexes.

Hi Bruce R., Stephen H., I've followed Bruce's suggestion and changed this patchset
to return ENOTSUP for realtime priority on Linux. Can you please take a look at
the latest version of the patchset?
Let me know if it needs any changes or if it's ready to be merged. Thank you!
