Description

The idea is that if we compile with --debug-validation, we:

- pass a pthread_mutexattr_t with PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK to all SCMutexInit calls
- add a check for each init/lock/unlock that aborts if the return code is not 0

@Philippe Antoine would this be helpful in fuzzing?

Only if fuzzing use multiple threads, which is not the case right now...
