[PROTON-2770] Getting the work queue with proton::link::work_queue() is not thread safe

Description

The accessor proton::link::work_queue() returns a reference to the proton::work_queue(), but making that call uses the link::container() method that increases the refcount on the pn_connection, making this function uncallable from outside of the work_queue.

I believe the documentation should make that explicit, or the function should be changed to be thread safe.
