PJSIP: Prevent deadlock due to dialog/transaction lock inversion.
A deadlock was observed where the monitor thread was stuck, therefore resulting in no incoming SIP traffic being processed. The problem occurred when two 200 OK responses arrived in response to a terminating NOTIFY request sent from Asterisk. The first 200 OK was dispatched to a threadpool worker, who locked the corresponding transaction. The second 200 OK arrived, resulting in the monitor thread locking the dialog. At this point, the two threads are at odds, because the monitor thread attempts to lock the transaction, and the threadpool thread loops attempting to try to lock the dialog. In this case, the fix is to not have the monitor thread attempt to hold both the dialog and transaction locks at the same time. Instead, we release the dialog lock before attempting to lock the transaction. There have also been some debug messages added to the process in an attempt to make it more clear what is going on in the process.
