Subject: [PATCH 10/43] Make request-attribute querying race-free via
 lock-coordinated free

ucp_request_query is safe at any point in a UCP request's lifetime
between obtaining a UCS_PTR_IS_PTR handle and calling ucp_request_free.
The previous code freed inside Request::callback (progress thread,
outside any lock) while queryRequestAttributes ran on the submit thread
under _mutex, causing a race in threaded progress modes that could free
the request out from under the query.

Move ucp_request_free into Request::setStatus, where it now executes
inside the lock that the submit thread already holds during publish +
query. Introduce a small Request::publishRequest helper so every submit
site (Tag, Stream, Mem, Am send and rendezvous-recv, Flush, EpClose)
performs the "store _request, query attributes" pair atomically under
the same _mutex. With both sides serialized on the same recursive mutex
the race is gone with no atomics, no new locking in the callback path
beyond what setStatus already takes, and no behavioral change to the
disabled (default) configuration.
