* gvalue.h (G_TYPE_IS_VALUE): use g_type_check_is_value_type()
instead of g_type_value_table_peek().
* gtype.[hc] (type_check_is_value_type_U): speed up check
LOCK-less by caching lookups in node->mutatable_has_value_table.
* gtype.[hc]: removed locks where possible. partly based on
patches from owen and alex.
