Subject: Remove threading functionality for now

This reverts the following commits:

 - 6ef4eabc0 (Bump the version number to 5.1.1alpha and liblzma soname
   to 5.0.99)
 - 70e750f59 (xz: Update the man page about threading)
 - c29e6630c (xz: Print the maximum number of worker threads in xz -vv)
 - 335fe260a (xz: Minor internal changes to handling of --threads)
 - 24e0406c0 (xz: Add support for threaded compression)
 - 9a4377be0 (Put the unstable APIs behind #ifdef LZMA_UNSTABLE)
 - de678e0c9 (liblmza: Add lzma_stream_encoder_mt() for threaded
   compression)

The multithreaded compression functions, while useful, are not set in
stone as part of the stable ABI.  Changes will be easier to weather
until the functions stabilize if they are left out from the
non-experimental development branch of Debian for now.
