Thomas Haller 637c2a08ce gobject: combine ref_count/lock_field in WeakRefData
We can safely combine this, and use bit 30 of the ref-count for locking.

This leaves still 2^30-1 for the ref-count, which is more than enough,
because these references are only taken for a short time in
g_weak_ref_get() and g_weak_ref_set(). Note that one thread can at most
take one reference at a time, so the ref-count will always a smaller
number.

Also note, that obviously we will only take a bit lock while also
holding a reference. That means, when weak_ref_data_unref() decreases
the ref-count to zero, the bit will be unlocked as well.

The reason to do this is to free up some space in WeakRefData. Note that
(on x86_64) this doesn't actually make the struct smaller.  It's
probably not reasonably possible to make WeakRefData smaller than it
already is (on x86_64). However, by combining the fields we have some
space for reuse without increasing the struct size. That space will be
used next.
