Fix bug in ets:delete for write_concurrency that could lead to deadlock
Relocking in ets_delete_1() and remove_named_tab() was done by unlocking the table without clearing the is_thread_safe flag. A racing thread could then read-lock the table and then incorrectly write-unlock the table as db_unlock() looked at is_thread_safe to determine which kind of lock to unlock. Several fixes: 1. Make db_unlock() use argument 'kind' instead of is_thread_safe to determine lock type. 2. Make relock logic use db_lock() and db_unlock() instead of directly accessing lock primitives. 3. Do ownership transfer earlier in ets_delete_1 to avoid racing owner process to also start deleting the same table.
