libcamera: thread: Ensure deferred deletion of all objects before stopping
Objects can be scheduled for deletion with Object::deleteLater(), which
queues a deferred deletion to the thread's event loop. As the
deleteLater() function is meant to be called from a different thread,
this may race with thread termination, and deferred deletions queued
just before calling Thread::exit() may not be processed by the event
loop. Make sure they get processed when finishing the thread, before
stopping.
This eliminates the race condition that occurs when calling
Object::deleteLater() followed by Thread::exit() from the same thread.
Calling deleteLater() from neither the thread the object is bound to or
the thread calling Thread::exit() is still inherently racy.
The change fixes a failure in the object-delete unit test.
