Add thread pool management calls. * libports/manage-one-thread.c (ports_manage_port_operations_one_thread): Likewise. * libports/destroy-right.c (ports_destroy_right): Defer the dereferencing of outstanding send rights to avoid a port_info use-after-free. * libports/port-deref-deferred.c: New file. * libports/port-deref-deferred.h: Likewise. * libports/ports.h (struct port_bucket): New field `threadpool'. (ports_lookup_payload): Check `port_right'.
