If anyone wants to try on Win32, that's going to help.

fix #1570

Copyright changes. (btw, does Copyright the VideoLAN team really mean something? for example, in French law you can't give away copyright to someone else)

as we don't go through the object table and links.

So we don't contend for the global structure lock all the time.

Introduced in the previous commit, pointed by Pierre. Thanks!

If it happens, there is a bug, and we'll assert in _yield.

Besides, we assert that this isn't the case right before...

When i_refcount drops to zero (under the structure lock), the object is
removed from the objects table before the structure lock is released.
Hence, no objects with a nul refcount can ever be left in the table.

There is an unlikely race condition if another object is removed from
the table right between we unlock the structure lock but before we
return from vlc_object_get() (so that the i_middle offset gets wrong).
