membarrier: introduce qemu/sys_membarrier.h

This new header file provides heavy-weight "global" memory barriers that
enforce memory ordering on each running thread belonging to the current
process. For now, use a dummy implementation that issues memory barriers
on both sides (matching what QEMU has been doing so far).

Backports commit c8d3877e48c4f57381d72eaf8d016bff12ce2d7c from qemu
