#9481: [patch] BMenuBar_Track() is not locking atomically

Because the locking is not-atomic it can cause the app to crash if it is
another thread unlocks the looper while this one is trying to use it. This
patch fixes the problem for me and I detect no regressions but I'd like
someone to take a second look. It was discovered while I was attempting to
fix #8539 and is (partially) responsible for causing that bug. Can someone
with experience with BMenuBar and BHandler/BLooper take a look at my patch
and see if there are any problems with it?
