internal/ethapi: lock when auto-filling transaction nonce (#14483)

More context in the bug This solves the problems of transactions being
submitted simultaneously, and getting the same nonce, due to the gap (due to
signing) between nonce-issuance and nonce-update. With this PR, a lock will
need to be acquired whenever a nonce is used, and released when the transaction
is submitted or errors out.
