Deflake DBWALTest.RaceInstallFlushResultsWithWalObsoletion (#10456)

Summary:
Existing DBWALTest.RaceInstallFlushResultsWithWalObsoletion test relies
on a specific interleaving of two background flush threads. We call them
bg1 and bg2, and assume bg1 starts to install flush results ahead of
bg2. After bg1 enters `ProcessManifestWrites`, bg1 waits for bg2 to also
enter `MemTableList::TryInstallMemtableFlushResults()` before bg1 can
proceed with MANIFEST write. However, if bg2 called `SyncClosedLogs()`
and needed to commit to the MANIFEST but falls behind bg1, then bg2
needs to wait for bg1 to finish writing to MANIFEST. This is a circular
dependency.

Fix this by allowing bg2 to start only after bg1 grabs the chance to
sync the WAL and commit to MANIFEST.

Test Plan:
1. make check

2. export TEST_TMPDIR=/dev/shm && gtest-parallel -r 1000 -w 32 ./db_wal_test --gtest_filter=DBWALTest.RaceInstallFlushResultsWithWalObsoletion
