injection_points: Add proper locking when reporting fixed-variable stats
Contrary to its siblings for the archiver, the bgwriter and the
checkpointer stats, pgstat_report_inj_fixed() can be called
concurrently. This was causing an assertion failure, while messing up
with the stats.
This code is aimed at being a template for extension developers, so it
is not a critical issue, but let's be correct. This module has also
been useful for some benchmarking, at least for me, and that was how I
have discovered this issue.
Oversight in f68cd847fa40.
