In the future the monitor iothread may be accessing the cur_mon as
well (via monitor_qmp_dispatch_one()).  Before we introduce a real
Out-Of-Band command, let's convert the cur_mon variable to be a
per-thread variable to make sure there won't be a race between threads.

Note that thread variables are not initialized to a valid value when new
thread is created.  However for our case we don't need to set it up,
since the cur_mon variable is only used in such a pattern:

  old_mon = cur_mon;
  cur_mon = xxx;
  (do something, read cur_mon if necessary in the stack)
  cur_mon = old_mon;

It plays a role as stack variable, so no need to be initialized at all.
We only need to make sure the variable won't be changed unexpectedly by
other threads.
