This is a fix of one more deadlock issue related to `interruptLock` critical sections. When the `interruptLock` is hold by the target virtual thread it is unsafe to suspend or post JVMTI events. This update is to ignore the JVMTI events when the `interruptLock` is hold. It is additionally to the cases when the target JavaThread is in a `VTMS` transition. It is based on the existing mechanism disallowing JVMTI suspends while the `interruptLock` is hold. In order to support this the target JavaThread has the `_is_disable_suspend` bit.
Testing:
- Ran mach5 tiers 1-6
- There is no regression test for this issue as it is not hard to construct one. Originally, the issue was reported by JGroups which is using the `Async` profiler.
