A fix for Bug#29431 killing an insert delayed thread causes crash

No test case, since the bug requires a stress case with 30 INSERT DELAYED
threads and 1 killer thread to repeat. The patch is verified
manually.
Review fixes.

The server that is running DELAYED inserts would deadlock itself
or crash under high load if some of the delayed threads were KILLed
in the meanwhile.

The fix is to change internal lock acquisition order of delayed inserts
subsystem and to ensure that
Delayed_insert::table_list::db does not point to volatile memory in some 
cases.
For details, please see a comment for sql_insert.cc.

Two latter cases indicate a request for lock upgrade.
XXX: why do we regard INSERT DELAYED into a view as an error and
do not simply a lock upgrade?
do not simply perform a lock upgrade?
TODO: The approach with using two mutexes to work with the
delayed thread list -- LOCK_delayed_insert and
LOCK_delayed_create -- is redundant, and we only need one of
them to protect the list. The reason we have two locks is that
we do not want to block look-ups in the list while we're waiting
for the newly created thread to open the delayed table. However,
this wait itself is redundant -- we always call get_local_table
later on, and there wait again until the created thread acquires
a table lock.
As is redundant the concept of locks_in_memory, since we already
have another counter with similar semantics - tables_in_use,
both of them are devoted to counting the number of producers for
a given consumer (delayed insert thread), only at different
stages of producer-consumer relationship.
'dead' and 'status' variables in Delayed_insert are redundant
too, since there is already 'di->thd.killed' and
di->stacked_inserts.
