    Cygwin: convert malloc lock to SRWLOCK
    
    Per https://cygwin.com/pipermail/cygwin-developers/2021-October/012429.html,
    we may encounter a crash when starting multiple threads during process
    startup (here: fhandler_fifo::fixup_after_{fork,exec}) which in turn
    allocate memory via malloc.
    
    The problem is concurrent usage of malloc before the malloc muto has
    been initialized.
    
    To fix this issue, convert the muto to a SRWLOCK and make sure it is
    statically initalized.  Thus, malloc can be called as early as necessary
    and malloc_init is only required to check for user space provided malloc.
    
    Note that this requires to implement a __malloc_trylock macro to be
    called from fork.
