QHostInfo: fix a race condition on wasDeleted
The plain bool variable wasDeleted is set to true in the QHostLookupManager dtor before the call to clear(), which calls waitForDone() on the thread pool performing the lookups. All tasks on the thread pool start by checking this variable so as to return early when destruction is in progress. But the check was outside the mutex-protected area, so as a non-atomic load, without a happens-before relation to the write, this is a Data Race, thus UB. Fix by moving the check past the mutex locking into the critical section. This way, tasks that were waiting for the mutex after seeing no wasDeleted before get the message reliably. This does not introduce a dead-lock, since the call to waitForDone() is outside any mutex protection leaving a window for the tasks to obtain the mutex and react on wasDeleted.
