The current approach is to do this optimizations at a higher level,
in generic code, so that single-threaded cases can be specifically
targeted.

Furthermore, using IS_IN (libc) as a compile-time indicator that
all locks are private is no longer correct once process-shared lock
implementations are moved into libc.

The generic <lowlevellock.h> is not compatible with assembler code
(obviously), so it's necessary to remove two long-unused #includes.
