Remove --disable-thread-safety and related code.
All supported computers have either POSIX or Windows threads, and we no longer have any automated testing of --disable-thread-safety. We define a vestigial ENABLE_THREAD_SAFETY macro to 1 in ecpg_config.h in case it is useful, but we no longer test it anywhere in PostgreSQL code, and associated dead code paths are removed. The Meson and perl-based Windows build scripts never had an equivalent build option.
