As glibc/netbsd don't protect access to thread struct members by a global
lock, we don't want to do it either. This change reduces the
responsibility of g_thread_list_lock to only protect g_thread_list.

1. Move the representation of thread join_state from pthread.attr.flag
to pthread.join_state. This clarifies thread state change.
2. Use atomic operations for pthread.join_state. So we don't need to
protect it by g_thread_list_lock. g_thread_list_lock will be reduced
to only protect g_thread_list or even removed in further changes.

Let the kernel keep pthread_internal_t::tid updated, including
across forks and for the main thread. This then lets us fix
pthread_join to only return after the thread has really exited.
Also fix the thread attributes of the main thread so we don't
unmap the main thread's stack (which is really owned by the
dynamic linker and contains things like environment variables),
which fixes crashes when joining with an exited main thread
and also fixes problems reported publicly with accessing environment
variables after the main thread exits (for which I've added a new
unit test).
In passing I also fixed a bug where if the clone(2) inside
pthread_create(3) fails, we'd unmap the child's stack and TLS (which
contains the mutex) and then try to unlock the mutex. Boom! It wasn't
until after I'd uploaded the fix for this that I came across a new
public bug reporting this exact failure.

Removed 'join_count' from pthread_internal_t and switched to using the flag
PTHREAD_ATTR_FLAG_JOINED to indicate if a thread is being joined. Combined with
a switch to a while loop in pthread_join, this fixes spurious wake-ups but
prevents a thread from being joined multiple times. This is fine for
two reasons:
1) The pthread_join specification allows for undefined behavior when multiple
threads try to join a single thread.
2) There is no thread safe way to allow multiple threads to join a single
thread with the pthread interface. The second thread calling pthread_join
could be pre-empted until the thread is destroyed and its handle reused for
a different thread. Therefore multi-join is always an error.

imgtec pointed out that pthread_kill(3) was broken, but most of the
other functions that ought to return ESRCH for invalid/exited threads
were equally broken.
