pack-objects: take lock before accessing
remaining
When checking the conditional of "while (me->remaining)", we did not hold the lock. Calling find_deltas would still be safe, since it checks "remaining" (after taking the lock) and is able to handle all values. In fact, this could (currently) not trigger any bug: a bug could happen if `remaining` transitioning from zero to non-zero races with the evaluation of the while-condition, but these are always separated by the data_ready-mechanism. Make sure we have the lock when we read `remaining`. This does mean we release it just so that find_deltas can take it immediately again. We could tweak the contract so that the lock should be taken before calling find_deltas, but let's defer that until someone can actually show that "unlock+lock" has a measurable negative impact.
