Since we switched from autotools to Meson in commit
94592c1406, we don't need to include
`config.h` early to properly enable large file support. Meson passes
the required macros on the compiler command line instead of defining
them in `config.h`.
This means we can include `config.h` at any time, whenever we want to
check its macros, and there are no ordering constraints.
Each close/open cycle resets the Filter's state, because a new Filter
instance is being created. That results in the serials
(replay_gain_serial and other_replay_gain_serial) being out of sync
with the internal ReplayGainFilter state.
So instead of initializing those serials once, we need to initialize
them each time we create new ReplayGainFilter instances, i.e. in
OpenFilter().

The filter can take some time to finish, even more so on a weak
machine with a saturated CPU. By not holding the mutex during that
time, we can reduce PlayerThread latency a lot, because that thread
needs to synchronize a lot with all outputs.
