Core/PBX: Deadlock between dialplan execution and application unregistration.

Not easy to reproduce, but we have noticed deadlocks when unloading a module
while dialplan is handling a request.

The deadlock is between :
1) Dialplan execution: pbx_extension_helper() first taking conlock,
then pbx_findapp() [when called] asking for lock on apps list.
2) Application unregistration: ast_unregister_application() first taking lock
on apps list, then unreference_cached_app() [when called] asking for conlock.

As a protection, I suggest to modify ast_unregister_application(), so that it
anticipates the need of conlock, before taking the lock on apps list.
The side effect is a longer unavailability of conlock when unregistering an
application.
