bug#61058: [PATCH v2] Fix asymetric mutex locking when joining thread.


From: Olivier Dion
Subject: bug#61058: [PATCH v2] Fix asymetric mutex locking when joining thread.
Date: Thu, 25 Jan 2024 16:45:47 -0500

If `join-thread' timeout, the thread mutex is not unlocked, resulting in
deadlock to the next call to it or deadlock of the thread itself when it
terminates.

Thus, always unlock the mutex.

Fix: #55356

* module/ice-9/threads.scm (join-thread): Always unlock thread mutex.
* test-suite/tests/threads.test (join-thread): New test to ensure the
mutex is released
