Subject: [PATCH] QLoggingRegistry: fix potential data race

The 'rules' vector is made up of all the individual {env,config,...}Rules
vectors under mutex protection whenever init() is called (only from the
QCoreApplication ctor) or, at any time, by a call to QLoggingCategory::
setFilterRules().

Yet, the writes to the individual *Rules vectors were never protected by
registryMutex, racing against the reads of the same vectors in the
updateRules() function.

Fix by protecting all access of all member variables with registryMutex.
Add some strategic comments to make analysis easier for the next guy.
