Jason Evans 6737d5f61e Fix a race in extent_grow_retained().
Set extent as active prior to registration so that other threads can't
modify it in the absence of locking.

This regression was introduced by
d27f29b468 (Disentangle arena and extent
locking.), via non-obvious means.  Removal of extents_mtx protection
during extent_grow_retained() execution opened up the race, but in the
presence of that locking, the code was safe.

This resolves #599.

jemalloc is a general purpose malloc(3) implementation that emphasizes
fragmentation avoidance and scalable concurrency support.  jemalloc first came
into use as the FreeBSD libc allocator in 2005, and since then it has found its
way into numerous applications that rely on its predictable behavior.  In 2010
jemalloc development efforts broadened to include developer support features
such as heap profiling and extensive monitoring/tuning hooks.  Modern jemalloc
releases continue to be integrated back into FreeBSD, and therefore versatility
remains critical.  Ongoing development efforts trend toward making jemalloc
among the best allocators for a broad range of demanding applications, and
eliminating/mitigating weaknesses that have practical repercussions for real
world applications.
