context: lazily initialize cancelCtx done channel

This CL reduces allocations when a context
created with WithCancel either

(1) never has its Done channel used or
(2) gets cancelled before its Done channel is used

This is not uncommon. Many contexts are created
for tasks that end up not using them.
