Remove risk of lockup in dictionary initialization Reported by Petr Sumbera <petr.sumbera@oracle.com> Two threads entering xmlInitializeDict concurently could lead to a lockup due to multiple initializations of the lock used. To avoid this problem move this to a new private function called from xmlOnceInit() and deprecate the old initalizer. Since threaded programs must call xmlInitParser() and this will lead to dereference of private data and the call to xmlOnceInit() guaranteed to be unique this should be safe now.

To build on Windows:
see instructions on win32/Readme.txt
To assert build quality:
on an Unixised setup:
run make tests
otherwise:
There is 3 standalone tools runtest.c runsuite.c testapi.c, which
should compile as part of the build or as any application would.
Launch them from this directory to get results, runtest checks
the proper functionning of libxml2 main APIs while testapi does
a full coverage check. Report failures to the list.
