Fix BZ# 22180.
POSIX requires that dlclose() and exit() be thread safe, therefore you can have one thread in the middle of dlclose() and another thread executing exit() without causing any undefined behaviour on the part of the implementation. The existing implementation had a flaw that exit() exit handler processing did not consider a concurrent dlclose() and would not mark already run exit handlers using the ef_free flavour. The consequence of this is that a concurrent exit() with dlclose() will run all the exit handlers that dlclose() had not yet run, but then will block on the loader lock. The concurrent dlclose() will continue to run all the exit handlers again (twice) in violation of the Itanium C++ ABI requirements for __cxa_atexit(). This commit fixes this by having exit() mark all handlers with ef_free to ensure that concurrent dlclose() won't re-run registered exit handlers that have already run.
