gold: ensure file_counts_lock is initialized before using
Since upgrading to binutils 2.35 I've been experiencing random memory corruption related crashes with ld.gold --threads. It's caused by multiple threads concurrently pushing elements onto the shared std::vector in File_read::record_file_read(). This vector is supposed to be protected by file_counts_lock, but that is initialized lazily and might be NULL when File_read::open() is called, in which case Hold_optional_lock silently skips locking it. Fix by calling the initialize() method before attempting to acquire the lock, the same as other places that use file_counts_lock. PR 26827 * fileread.cc (File_read::open): Ensure file_counts_lock is initialized. * testsuite/Makefile.am (check_PROGRAMS): Add a test that passes -Wl,--threads. * testsuite/Makefile.in: Regenerate.
