    libc/locale: Fix races between localeconv(3) and setlocale(3)
    
    Each locale embeds a lazily initialized lconv which is populated by
    localeconv(3) and localeconv_l(3).  When setlocale(3) updates the global
    locale, the lconv needs to be (lazily) reinitialized.  To signal this,
    we set flag variables in the locale structure.  There are two problems:
    
    - The flags are set before the locale is fully updated, so a concurrent
      localeconv() call can observe partially initialized locale data.
    - No barriers ensure that localeconv() observes a fully initialized
      locale if a flag is set.
    
    So, move the flag update appropriately, and use acq/rel barriers to
    provide some synchronization.  Note that this is inadequate in the face
    of multiple concurrent calls to setlocale(3), but this is not expected
    to work regardless.
    
    Thanks to Henry Hu <henry.hu.sh@gmail.com> for providing a test case
    demonstrating the race.
