system/main: transfer replay mutex ownership from main thread to main loop thread
On MacOS, UI event loop has to be ran in the main thread of a process.
Because of that restriction, on this platform, qemu main event loop is
ran on another thread [1].

This breaks record/replay feature, which expects thread running qemu_init
to initialize hold this lock, breaking associated functional tests on
MacOS.

Thus, as a generalization, and similar to how BQL is handled, we release
it after init, and reacquire the lock before entering main event loop,
avoiding a special case if a separate thread is used.

Tested on MacOS with:
$ meson test -C build --setup thorough --print-errorlogs \
func-x86_64-x86_64_replay func-arm-arm_replay func-aarch64-aarch64_replay
$ ./build/qemu-system-x86_64 -nographic -icount shift=auto,rr=record,rrfile=replay.log
$ ./build/qemu-system-x86_64 -nographic -icount shift=auto,rr=replay,rrfile=replay.log
