Merge lp:~johill-lanl/epics-base/epicsThreadOnce-atomics-based into lp:~epics-core/epics-base/3.15

[Jeff Hill]

o added new epicsAtomics based, and OS independent, implementation of epicsThreadOnce in epicsThreadOnce.cpp
o changed type of epicsThreadOnceId from epicsThreadId to void *
o fixed once flag isnt initialized with EPICSTHREAD_ONCE_INIT in ipAddrToAsciiAsynchronous.cpp
o removed OS dependent implementations of epicsThreadOnce from {posix, RTEMS, vxWorks, win32}
