DIFF: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/550be40515df7135a8628a1abe57b845570645dd.diff

LOG: [libc] Add simple implementations of mtx_lock and mtx_unlock.

These functions only support locking and unlocking of plain mutexes.
They will be extended in future changes to handled recursive and timed
mutexes.
