atomics: eliminate mb_read/mb_set
qatomic_mb_read and qatomic_mb_set were the very first atomic primitives
introduced for QEMU; their semantics are unclear and they provide a false
sense of safety.
The last use of qatomic_mb_read() has been removed, so delete it.
qatomic_mb_set() instead can survive as an optimized
qatomic_set()+smp_mb(), similar to Linux's smp_store_mb(), but
rename it to qatomic_set_mb() to match the order of the two
operations.
