compiler-context-analysis: Introduce scoped init guards
Add scoped init guard definitions for common synchronization primitives supported by context analysis. The scoped init guards treat the context as active within initialization scope of the underlying context lock, given initialization implies exclusive access to the underlying object. This allows initialization of guarded members without disabling context analysis, while documenting initialization from subsequent usage. The documentation is updated with the new recommendation. Where scoped init guards are not provided or cannot be implemented (ww_mutex omitted for lack of multi-arg guard initializers), the alternative is to just disable context analysis where guarded members are initialized.
