When we're gathering statistics, we are traversing the freelist,
which may change under our feet in multithreaded scenario. This
is verified by occasional segfaults when running malloc autotest
on a machine with big amount of cores.
This patch protects malloc heap stats call with a lock. It changes
its definition in the process due to locking invalidating the
const-ness, but this isn't a public API, so that's OK.
