[PATCH][BZ #16573] Fix for hang when using mtrace with MALLOC_TRACE set

A hang can occur if the mtrace output is diverted to a file (by setting
the MALLOC_TRACE environment variable) and an mtrace problem is found.
The mtrace hook leads to a call of __libc_message(), which eventually
results in a call to malloc(), causing another mtrace hook to be called.
This hook then attempts to reacquire the same lock that was already
claimed by the first hook, resulting in an infinite hang.
This patch fixes this by making all mtrace hooks temporarily uninstall
all mtrace hooks for the duration of the call, so that there will not be
another call to an mtrace hook further down the call chain.

[BZ #16573]
* malloc/mtrace.c (tr_freehook): Move function prototype to
before the hook definitions. Disable all hooks before calling
the caller or old hook, and re-enable all hooks afterwards.
(tr_mallochook): Likewise.
(tr_reallochook): Likewise.
(tr_freehook): Likewise.
