fdo#63391 deadlock on opening .odb file that auto-connects to the database

Let foo.odb be a database file that has a macro that connects to the
Database on "Open Document" event (and needs to prompt user for
user/password).

There was a race condition between two actions:

 1) the asynchronous treatment of "OnFirstControllerConnected" in dbaui::OApplicationController,
    which tries to get dbaui::OApplicationController's mutex

 2) the StarBasic macro calling dbaui::OApplicationController::connect
    which needs to display a dialog (to get username and password),
    and thus puts that dialog in the main thread's event queue
    and waits for it ... with dbaui::OApplicationController's mutex held

Now, if "1)" is before "2)" in the event queue of the the main thread,
*but* "1)" is executed *after* "2)" has taken the lock, there is a deadlock.

Fix:

 1) Make OnFirstControllerConnected synchronous.
    Make sure (by taking mutex in dbaui::OApplicationController::attachFrame, its ancestor in the call graph)
    that nothing else will happen with the OApplicationController as long as it is not finished.
    ---> it does not need to take mutex itself anymore

    This avoids the "order in the asynchronous events" dependency.

 2) Change dbaui::OApplicationController::ensureConnection to do the user prompting
    WITHOUT HOLDING the mutex, and use the mutex "only" to protect actually assigning
    the connection to m_xDataSourceConnection.

    Theoretically, in some race condition, we could connect twice and then discard one connection <shrug>.
    ensureConnection will never return the discarded connection, though.

    (I think I got that right with respect to http://www.cs.umd.edu/~pugh/java/memoryModel/DoubleCheckedLocking.html)

    This keeps it from locking on another condition while holding the mutex.
