Bug#43758 Query cache can lock up threads in 'freeing items' state

Early patch submitted for discussion.

It is possible for more than one thread to enter the condition
in query_cache_insert(), but the condition predicate is to
signal one thread each time the cache status changes between
the following states: {NO_FLUSH_IN_PROGRESS,FLUSH_IN_PROGRESS,
TABLE_FLUSH_IN_PROGRESS}

Consider three threads THD1, THD2, THD3

   THD2: select ... => Got a writer in ::store_query
   THD3: select ... => Got a writer in ::store_query
   THD1: flush tables => qc status= FLUSH_IN_PROGRESS;
                      new writers are blocked.
   THD2: select ... => Still got a writer and enters cond in
                       query_cache_insert
   THD3: select ... => Still got a writer and enters cond in
                       query_cache_insert
   THD1: flush tables => finished and signal status change.
   THD2: select ... => Wakes up and completes the insert.
   THD3: select ... => Happily waiting for better times. Why hurry?

This patch is a refactoring of this lock system. It introduces four new methods:
   Query_cache::try_lock()
   Query_cache::lock()
   Query_cache::lock_and_suspend()
   Query_cache::unlock()

This change also deprecates wait_while_table_flush_is_in_progress(). All threads are
queued and put on a conditional wait. On each unlock the queue is signalled. This resolve
the issues with left over threads. To assure that no threads are spending unnecessary
time waiting a signal broadcast is issued every time a lock is taken before a full
cache flush.

** We want to accomplish the following state:

** - THD2: query_cache_insert (cond_wait)
** - THD3: query_cache_insert (cond_wait)
** - No thread should be holding the structure_guard_mutex.
**
** First step is to place a DELETE-statement on the debug hook just
** before the mutex lock in invalidate_table_internal.
** This will allow new result sets to be written into the QC.

** The stmt will complete the query cache invalidation and return
