[Bug 1194299] [NEW] Threading issues in hub management

 

Public bug reported:

AdcHub::info is called from various different threads (timer, refresh,
hub, GUI) but it's not thread safe. lastInfoMap is unprotected while it
can be modified from different threads simultaneously. This has been
fixed in AirDC++ by syncing the info calls from other threads to the hub
thread.

Client::updateCounts is another function that shouldn't be called from
different threads because the hub counts may go wrong. This started to
cause real problems in AirDC++ when the info calls from TimerManager
were synced to the hub threads, which caused them to get executed
asynchronously all the time.
