qemu_capabilities: Rework domain caps cache

Since v5.6.0-48-g270583ed we try to cache domain capabilities,
i.e. store filled virDomainCaps in a hash table in virQEMUCaps
for future use. However, there's a race condition in the way it's
implemented. We use virQEMUCapsGetDomainCapsCache() to obtain the
pointer to the hash table, then we search the hash table for
cached data and if none is found the domcaps is constructed and
put into the table. Problem is that this is all done without any
locking, so if there are two threads trying to do the same, one
will succeed and the other will fail inserting the data into the
table.

Also, the API looks a bit fishy - obtaining pointer to the hash
table is dangerous.

The solution is to use a mutex that guards the whole operation
with the hash table. Then, the API can be changes to return
virDomainCapsPtr directly.
