Improved and portable ast_log recursion avoidance

This introduces a new logger routine ast_log_safe.  This routine should be
used for all error messages in code that can be run as a result of ast_log.
ast_log_safe does nothing if run recursively.  All error logging in
astobj2.c, strings.c and utils.h have been switched to ast_log_safe.

This required adding support for raw threadstorage.  This provides direct
access to the void* pointer in threadstorage.  In ast_log_safe, NULL is used
to signify that this thread is not already running ast_log_safe, (void*)1 when
it is already running.  This was done since it's critical that ast_log_safe
do nothing that could log during recursion checking.
