[PATCH v8 06/20] job.h: define functions called without job lock held

[Emanuele Giuseppe Esposito]

These functions don't need a _locked() counterpart, since
they are all called outside job.c and take the lock only
internally.

Update also the comments in blockjob.c (and move them in job.c).

Note: at this stage, job_{lock/unlock} and job lock guard macros
are *nop*.

No functional change intended.
