This commit allows us to build Lean without the pthread dependency.
It is also useful if we want to implement multi-threading on top of Boost.

This is a very convenient feature for interrupting non-terminating user scripts.
Before this commit, the user had to manually invoke check_interrupt() in potentially expensive loops. Now, this is not needed anymore.
Remark: we still have to check whether this trick works with LuaJIT or not.

Proof/Cex builders and tactics implemented in Lua had a "strong reference" to script_state. If they are stored in the Lua state, then we get a cyclic reference.
That is, script_state points to these objects, and they point back to script_state.
To avoid this memory leak, this commit defines a weak reference for script_state objects. The Proof/Cex builders and tactics now store a weak reference to the Lua state.

The unlock_guard and exec_unprotected will be useful also for implementing the Lua tactic API.
