Stuffed memory leak incurred by re-initializing of TSD slots
after the last call to TclFinalizeThreadData (done from within Tcl_FinalizeThread()). We basically just repeat the TclFinalizeThreadData() once more before tearing down TSD keys in TclFinalizeSynchronization(). There should be more elaborate mechanism in place for handling such issues, based on thread cleanup handlers registered on the OS level. Such change requires much more work and would also require TIP because some visible parts of Tcl API would have to be modified. In the meantime, this will do.
