Fix a lock-order-inversion bug in resolver.c

There is a lock-order-inversion (potential deadlock) in resolver.c,
because in dns_resolver_shutdown() a resolver bucket lock is locked
while the resolver lock itself is already locked, while in
fctx_sendevents() the resolver lock is locked while a bucket lock
is locked before calling that function in fctx__done_detach().

The resolver lock/unlock in dns_resolver_shutdown() was added back in
the 317e36d47e commit to make sure that
the function is finished before the resolver object is destroyed.

Since res->exiting is atomic, it should be possible to remove the
resolver locking in dns_resolver_shutdown() and add it to the
send_shutdown_events() function which requires it.

Also, since 'res->exiting' is now set while unlocked, the 'INSIST'
in spillattimer_countdown() is wrong, and is removed.
