Refs #28593 -- Made URLResolver._populate() more resilient to signal interrupts.

_populate() sets the populating attribute to prevent infinite recursion in
case a urlconf includes itself. The flag is a threadlocal to avoid a race
condition [1] where one thread sets the flag and another checks it, then
proceeds to access data that's supposed to be populated (e.g. _reverse_dict)
but isn't yet.

The potential still exists for a thread to set the threadlocal, then be
interrupted by a signal such as SIGALRM and raise before resetting the
threadlocal flag. In this scenario, subsequent calls to _populate() in the
same thread will short-circuit erroneously.

The bulk of the method was already wrapped in a try/finally in df41b5a, but
since a signal interrupt can occur at any line executed by the interpreter,
this moves up the try to ensure threadlocal gets reset.
