This fix prevents a deadlock that was experienced in chan_local. There was

deadlock prevention in place in chan_local, but it would not work in a specific
case because the channel was recursively locked. By unlocking the channel prior
to calling the generator's generate callback in ast_read_generator_actions(), we
prevent the recursive locking, and therefore the deadlock.
