mediaapi/writers/download: Rework remote file download synchronisation

Browse source 
Avoid locking around db requests by only locking around active requests
and always creating an active request if there is none. A nice side
effect of this is that if many parallel requests for remote media come
in (a common case) then only one database query is made for the duration
of the query.
