nptl: Add one more barrier to nptl/tst-create1
Without the bar_ctor_finish barrier, it was possible that thread2
re-locked user_lock before ctor had a chance to lock it.  ctor then
blocked in its locking operation, xdlopen from the main thread
did not return, and thread2 was stuck waiting in bar_dtor:

thread 1: started.
thread 2: started.
thread 2: locked user_lock.
constructor started: 0.
thread 1: in ctor: started.
thread 3: started.
thread 3: done.
thread 2: unlocked user_lock.
thread 2: locked user_lock.

Fixes the test in commit 83b5323261bb72313bffcf37476c1b8f0847c736
("elf: Avoid deadlock between pthread_create and ctors [BZ #28357]").
