Doing this required synchronizing with the VO thread, which could lead
to audio dropouts if the VO was frozen (which can happen in practice if
e.g. an opengl_cb user is not doing what the API demands).
Add a way to send asynchronous VOCTRLs, and use that for the playback
state. In theory, it would be better to make this status update a
several function and to "merge" several queued update, but that would be
slightly more effort/code, and the update is so infrequent that the
merging would never happen anyway.
The change to vo_destroy() is to make sure all queued asynchronous
reuqests are finished before making the vo_thread exit.
Even though it's only used on MS Windows, it's run on any platform with
any VO, which makes this worse.
