It's not a good method, guard with spin-wait.

TODO:

[x] Add regression test.
[x] Combine initializerCount/initializedCount into new IL2C_TYPE_INITIALIZER_INFORMATION.

Finished with improvement topic:

Makes better suspending way when executing type initalizer. Currently suspending with spin wait.
Cause: Consume CPU cycles when type initializer is executing.
Idea:
- Insert monitor lock instance on TYPE_INITIALIZER_INFORMATION.
- Add more state for 'Initialized monitor lock but executing type initializer'.
- Replace from spin wait to monitor lock.
