[tsan] Don't treat uncontended pthread_once as a potentially blocking region (#132477)
guard_acquire is a helper function used to implement TSan's
__cxa_guard_acquire and pthread_once interceptors.
https://reviews.llvm.org/D54664 introduced optional hooks to support
cooperative multi-threading. It worked by marking the entire
guard_acquire call as a potentially blocking region.

In principle, only the contended case needs to be a potentially blocking
region. This didn't matter for __cxa_guard_acquire because the compiler
emits an inline fast path before calling __cxa_guard_acquire. That is,
once we call __cxa_guard_acquire at all, we know we're in the contended
case.

https://reviews.llvm.org/D107359 then unified the __cxa_guard_acquire
and pthread_once interceptors, adding the hooks to pthread_once.
However, unlike __cxa_guard_acquire, pthread_once callers are not
expected to have an inline fast path. The fast path is inside the
function.

As a result, TSan unnecessarily calls into the cooperative
multi-threading engine on every pthread_once call, despite applications
generally expecting pthread_once to be fast after initialization. Fix
this by deferring the hooks to the contended case inside guard_acquire.
