Draft: Reduce mutex contention in the database load balancer

Simon Tomlinson requested to merge stomlinson/load-balancing-reduce-mutex-contention into master

What does this MR do and why?

Moves to a single mutex-per-host in the load balancer when doing host checks, so that one long host check does not block querying other hosts.
