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.

The errors are introduced in "Make pthread join_state not protected by g_thread_list_lock".

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.

If pthread_detach() is called while the thread is in pthread_exit(),
it takes the risk that no one can free the pthread_internal_t.
So I add PTHREAD_ATTR_FLAG_ZOMBIE to detect this, maybe very rare, but
both glibc and netbsd libpthread have similar function.

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.
