Boosted priority of main synergy threads to be very high (highest 

realtime priority).  After some testing it appears that anything
less than this can starve synergy in some circumstances, preventing
it from forwarding messages to clients.  This is a rather risky
change since synergy can now virtually take over a system if it
behaves badly.  This change only affects windows systems since
lib/arch of other platforms don't yet attempt to boost priority.
