Summary:
Context:
[Rapid thread creation and deletion](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/blob/6.27.fb/utilities/transactions/write_prepared_transaction_test.cc#L439-L444) in `SnapshotConcurrentAccessTest.SnapshotConcurrentAcces` inside a [potentially big loop](https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/blob/6.27.fb/utilities/transactions/write_prepared_transaction_test.cc#L1238-L1248) can lead to heavy-loading the system with many threads due to delay in actually cleaning up thread's resource in the kernel sometime. We ran into some [flaky failure](https://app.circleci.com/pipelines/github/facebook/rocksdb/10383/workflows/136f1005-80a9-4515-aee9-fe36ac6462a1/jobs/253289) in CI and reproduced it by below:
- Command
```
Added `ROCKSDB_NAMESPACE::port::InstallStackTraceHandler();` like https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/pull/9276
DEBUG_LEVEL=2 make -j56 write_prepared_transaction_test
GTEST_CATCH_EXCEPTIONS=0 ~/gtest-parallel/gtest-parallel -r 200 -w 200 ./write_prepared_transaction_test --gtest_filter=TwoWriteQueues/SnapshotConcurrentAccessTest.SnapshotConcurrentAccess/1
```
- Stack, where `write_prepared_transaction_test.cc:442` in `https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9` points to thread creation
```

- Move thread 2's work into current thread to avoid half of the thread creation cuz there is no difference in doing so. We expect this can make the thread-creation error less often, even though we can't gurantee it from happening again. Considering this is a trivial change with positive impact, it's still worth landing and monitor if it's enough to solve the problem in reality.

Before the change, repeating the test 200 times with 200 workers failed

After the change: repeating the test 200 times with 200 workers didn't fail, even with repeating the "repeating" for 10 times like below
`for i in {1..10}; do ~/gtest-parallel/gtest-parallel -r 200 -w 200 ./write_prepared_transaction_test --gtest_filter=TwoWriteQueues/SnapshotConcurrentAccessTest.SnapshotConcurrentAccess/1; done`

RocksDB: A Persistent Key-Value Store for Flash and RAM Storage
RocksDB is developed and maintained by Facebook Database Engineering Team.
It is built on earlier work on LevelDB by Sanjay Ghemawat (sanjay@google.com)
and Jeff Dean (jeff@google.com)
This code is a library that forms the core building block for a fast
key-value server, especially suited for storing data on flash drives.
It has a Log-Structured-Merge-Database (LSM) design with flexible tradeoffs
between Write-Amplification-Factor (WAF), Read-Amplification-Factor (RAF)
and Space-Amplification-Factor (SAF). It has multi-threaded compactions,
making it especially suitable for storing multiple terabytes of data in a
single database.
The public interface is in include/. Callers should not include or
rely on the details of any other header files in this package. Those
internal APIs may be changed without warning.
RocksDB is dual-licensed under both the GPLv2 (found in the COPYING file in the root directory) and Apache 2.0 License (found in the LICENSE.Apache file in the root directory). You may select, at your option, one of the above-listed licenses.
