index-pack: work around thread-unsafe pread()

Multi-threaing of index-pack was disabled with c0f8654
(index-pack: Disable threading on cygwin - 2012-06-26), because
pread() implementations for Cygwin and MSYS were not thread
safe.  Recent Cygwin does offer usable pread() and we enabled
multi-threading with 103d530f (Cygwin 1.7 has thread-safe pread,
2013-07-19).

Work around this problem on platforms with a thread-unsafe
pread() emulation by opening one file handle per thread; it
would prevent parallel pread() on different file handles from
stepping on each other.

Also remove NO_THREAD_SAFE_PREAD that was introduced in c0f8654
because it's no longer used anywhere.

This workaround is unconditional, even for platforms with
thread-safe pread() because the overhead is small (a couple file
handles more) and not worth fragmenting the code.
