musl: fix locking synchronization bug

Import proposed upstream fix [2] for the critical locking
synchronization bug recently found in musl [1].

This affects all programs that are temporarily multithreaded, but then
return to single-threaded operation.

+Subject: [PATCH 2/4] don't use libc.threads_minus_1 as relaxed atomic for
+ skipping locks
+
+after all but the last thread exits, the next thread to observe
+libc.threads_minus_1==0 and conclude that it can skip locking fails to
+synchronize with any changes to memory that were made by the
+last-exiting thread. this can produce data races.
+
+on some archs, at least x86, memory synchronization is unlikely to be
+a problem; however, with the inline locks in malloc, skipping the lock
+also eliminated the compiler barrier, and caused code that needed to
+re-check chunk in-use bits after obtaining the lock to reuse a stale
+value, possibly from before the process became single-threaded. this
+in turn produced corruption of the heap state.
+
+some uses of libc.threads_minus_1 remain, especially for allocation of
+new TLS in the dynamic linker; otherwise, it could be removed
+entirely. it's made non-volatile to reflect that the remaining
+accesses are only made under lock on the thread list.
+
+instead of libc.threads_minus_1, libc.threaded is now used for
+skipping locks. the difference is that libc.threaded is permanently
+true once an additional thread has been created. this will produce
+some performance regression in processes that are mostly
+single-threaded but occasionally creating threads. in the future it
+may be possible to bring back the full lock-skipping, but more care
+needs to be taken to produce a safe design.
