pthread: fix deadlock in pthread_rwlock_*

Browse Source 
Properly initialize and reset the _owner member, otherwise
correlating the unlock operation with the respective read/write
lock does not work.

Move locking the _nbr_mutex in the unlock operation after the
owner check. Otherwise, a reader holding that mutex and waiting
for the write lock would deadlock a writer trying to unlock the
_global_mutex.

Ref. Componolit/componolit#86
Ref. #2656
Fixes #2832
