avoid freeze with multiple layers locator search (#8650) (#8659)

* avoid freeze with multiple layers locator search

if the project had many searchable layers, a freeze occured when running the all features locator filter
the feature iterator was created in prepare (main thread) and the maximum number of connection was reached

* fix leak + clear former prepared layers

* avoid copy in loop

* declare ptr earlier
