Make ordinary libraries work with SMP RTS

We don't want to have two separate library "ways" for SMP and single-threaded. Unfortunately SMP requires an extra field in each thunk, which is a performance loss (<5%).

In order to make it practical to use SMP, we will have to bite this bullet, however.

With this change, -smp will be an RTS way only, just like -threaded.
