Summary:                    [patch] segfault on chanspy due to race in
main/channel.c
Description: 
When channel.c destroys the datastore on the channel, it doesn't hold the
channel lock while calling the destroy callback. It really ought to,
because otherwise it's accessing the datastore list without locking. I've
gotten a segfault trying to lock the mutex in the ds destroy function in
app_chanspy because of this race.

Holding the channel lock during the destroy should be safe because it is
also held during the fixup callback, and app_chanspy has already been
patched to avoid the possible deadlock from that locking order issue.
