Related to hashicorp/consul#8329

The first commit fixes a data race found by a modified serf test. The lock was not being held long enough.

The second commit should allow us to fix hashicorp/consul#9457

The nodeMap contains pointers, so we need to hold the lock until all the field
values have been read. Otherwise there is a data race because another
goroutine could update the struct referenced by the pointer.
This change is being made to fix a data race in Serf and Consul. By
accepting the tags to UpdateNodeMeta, we can use a lock around the
local tags.

Data races aside, fewer circular dependencies seems like a good direction.
