Process messages with only the top-level read lock held
Users are required to only ever call `read_event` serially
per-peer, thus we actually don't need any locks while we're
processing messages - we can only be processing messages in one
thread per-peer.
That said, we do need to ensure that another thread doesn't
disconnect the peer we're processing messages for, as that could
result in a peer_disconencted call while we're processing a
message for the same peer - somewhat nonsensical.
This significantly improves parallelism especially during gossip
processing as it avoids waiting on the entire set of individual
peer locks to forward a gossip message while several other threads
are validating gossip messages with their individual peer locks
held.
