Amaury Denoyelle 7a02fcaf20 BUG/MEDIUM: server: fix race on servers_list during server deletion
Each server is inserted in a global list named servers_list on
new_server(). This list is then only used to finalize servers
initialization after parsing.

On dynamic server creation, there is no issue as new_server() is under
thread isolation. However, when a server is deleted after its refcount
reached zero, srv_drop() removes it from servers_list without lock
protection. In the longterm, this can cause list corruption and crashes,
especially if multiple adjacent servers are removed in parallel.

To fix this, convert servers_list to a mt_list. This should not impact
performance as servers_list is not used during runtime outside of server
creation/deletion.

This should fix github issue #2733. Thanks to Chris Staite who first
found the issue here.

This must be backported up to 2.6.
