Fix race condition with a std::string access

The downloading thread was writing to a std::string while the main
thread was trying to draw it, for example. Now access to the label
caption is guarded with a mutex.

Should fix crashes while downloading updates.

(cherry picked from eAthena branch, commits
  6ac9c3bce62a8fc79e23477417188108f0ad9fa6 and
