Nat Goodspeed a9cf349de4 DRTVWR-494: Improve thread safety of LLSingleton machinery.
Remove warnings about LLSingleton not being thread-safe because, at this point,
we have devoted considerable effort to trying to make it thread-safe.

Add LLSingleton<T>::Locker, a nested class which both provides a function-
static mutex and a scoped lock that uses it. Instantiating Locker, which has a
nullary constructor, replaces the somewhat cumbersome idiom of declaring a
std::unique_lock<std::recursive_mutex> lk(getMutex);

This eliminates (or rather, absorbs) the typedefs and getMutex() method from
LLParamSingleton. Replace explicit std::unique_lock declarations in
LLParamSingleton methods with Locker declarations.

Remove LLSingleton<T>::SingletonInitializer nested struct. Instead of
getInstance() relying on function-static initialization to protect (only)
constructSingleton() calls, explicitly use a Locker instance to cover its
whole scope, and make the UNINITIALIZED case call constructSingleton().
Rearrange cases so that after constructSingleton(), control falls through to
the CONSTRUCTED case and the finishInitializing() call.

Use a Locker instance in other public-facing methods too: instanceExists(),
wasDeleted(), ~LLSingleton(). Make destructor protected so it can only be called
via deleteSingleton() (but must be accessible to subclasses for overrides).

Remove LLSingletonBase::get_master() and get_initializing(), which permitted
directly manipulating the master list and the initializing stack without any
locking mechanism. Replace with get_initializing_size().

Similarly, replace LLSingleton_manage_master::get_initializing() with
get_initializing_size(). Use in constructSingleton() in place of
get_initializing().size().

Remove LLSingletonBase::capture_dependency()'s list_t parameter, which
accepted the list returned by get_initializing(). Encapsulate that retrieval
within the scope of the new lock in capture_dependency().

Add LLSingleton_manage_master::capture_dependency(LLSingletonBase*, EInitState)
to forward (or not) a call to LLSingletonBase::capture_dependency(). Nullary
LLSingleton<T>::capture_dependency() calls new LLSingleton_manage_master method.

Equip LLSingletonBase::MasterList with a mutex of its own, separate from the
one donated by the LLSingleton machinery, to serialize use of MasterList data
members. Introduce MasterList::Lock nested class to lock the MasterList mutex
while providing a reference to the MasterList instance. Introduce subclasses
LockedMaster, which provides a reference to the actual mMaster master list
while holding the MasterList lock; and LockedInitializing, which does the same
for the initializing list. Make mMaster and get_initializing_() private so
that consuming code can *only* access those lists via LockedInitializing and
LockedMaster.

Make MasterList::cleanup_initializing_() private, with a LockedInitializing
public forwarding method. This avoids another call to MasterList::instance(),
and also mandates that the lock is currently held during every call.

Similarly, move LLSingletonBase::log_initializing() to a LockedInitializing
log() method.
