Matt Arant 3383595296 Fix unsynchronized data race in SubscriptionManager::processCommand()
processCommand() read/mutated the `subscriptions` map and individual
Subscription objects' `subscribers` vectors (via subscribe()/unsubscribe()/
event()/the "publish" branch's own insert()) without taking `lock` at all,
even though add() and removeSessionSubscriptions() already do take it for
the exact same state. removeSessionSubscriptions() runs from ~TCPSession(),
on whatever thread happens to be tearing down a *different* connection, so
one thread erasing a session from a Subscription's subscribers vector could
run concurrently with another thread iterating (event()) or appending to
(subscribe()) that same vector - a plain unsynchronized data race.

Reproduced live while testing an unrelated ItemDataBase fix: rapid connect/
subscribe/disconnect cycles against the "createItem" subscription produced
a real segfault, confirmed via gdb - Socket::write() -> resetSocket()
dereferencing a corrupted EPoll reference, consistent with iterating a
vector that another thread was concurrently erasing from.

Wrapped the whole method body in a std::lock_guard on the same `lock`
mutex SubscriptionManager already has. Verified no reentrancy risk: nothing
reachable from processCommand() (including subscription handlers' own
process()/onSubscribe() implementations) calls back into processCommand(),
add(), or removeSessionSubscriptions() on the same thread, and `lock` is a
plain non-recursive std::mutex, so this can't deadlock.

Verified fix: the exact repro sequence that segfaulted the server twice
now runs clean, server stays up.

Not touched: Subscription::sendToAll() has no live callers (dead code);
dynamically `new`'d *OWNER subscriptions are still never delete()'d when
unpublished (a pre-existing leak, not a crash) - both out of scope here.
