Jukka Laitinen c3c30e5d4f Fix memory corruption when work queue is being deleted
When the last WorkItem is deleted, it is removed from a work queue and the
queue is being stopped. But, the queue itself might get deleted in the middle,
in a higher priority thread than where the WorkItem deletion was performed from

If the WorkQueue::Detach accesses the member variables after this, there is memory
corruption

This happens in particular when launching i2c or spi devices in
I2CSPIDriverBase::module_start:

- The "initializer" is deleted when the instance is not found and the iterator
  while loop continues.
- The workqueue is deleted in the middle of "initializer" deletion when the
  WorkQueueRunner returns.

This prevents deletion of the WorkQueue before the Detach has been finished,
in the specific case that the ::Detach triggers the deletion
