Finally this makes a cancelled root actor nursery not clobber child
tasks which request and lock the root's tty for the debugger repl.
Using an edge triggered event which is set after all fifo-lock-queued
tasks are complete, we can be sure that no lingering child tasks are
going to get interrupted during pdb use and tty lock acquisition.
Further, even if new tasks do queue up to get the lock, the root will
incrementally send cancel msgs to each sub-actor only once the tty is
not locked by a (set of) child request task(s). Add shielding around all
the critical sections where the child attempts to allocate the lock from
the root such that it won't be disrupted from cancel messages from the
root after the acquire lock transaction has started.
