webrtc/rtc_base/synchronization/yield.h
Markus Handell f70fbc8411 Introduces rtc_base/synchronization/mutex.h.
This change introduces a new non-reentrant mutex to WebRTC. It
enables eventual migration to Abseil's mutex.

The mutex types supportable by webrtc::Mutex are

- absl::Mutex
- CriticalSection (Windows only)
- pthread_mutex (POSIX only)

In addition to introducing the mutexes, the CL also changes
PacketBuffer to use the new mutex instead of rtc::CriticalSection.

The method of yielding from critical_section.cc was given a
mini-cleanup and YieldCurrentThread() was added to
rtc_base/synchronization/yield.h/cc.

Additionally, google_benchmark benchmarks for the mutexes were added
(test courtesy of danilchap@), and some results from a pthread/Abseil
shootout were added showing Abseil has the advantage in higher
contention.
