  [scan-build] Fix deadlock at failures in libears/ear.c

We experienced some deadlocks when we used multiple threads for logging
using `scan-builds` intercept-build tool when we used multiple threads by
e.g. logging `make -j16`

```

I think the gcc's exit call caused the injected `libear.so` to be unloaded
by the `ld`, which in turn called the `void on_unload() __attribute__((destructor))`.
That tried to acquire an already locked mutex which was left locked in the
`bear_report_call()` call, that probably encountered some error and
returned early when it forgot to unlock the mutex.

All of these are speculation since from the backtrace I could not verify
if frames 2 and 3 are in fact corresponding to the `libear.so` module.
But I think it's a fairly safe bet.

So, hereby I'm releasing the held mutex on *all paths*, even if some failure
happens.

PS: I would use lock_guards, but it's C.
