mpoeter bef3127b00 Fix race in ExitAsBatchGroupLeader with pipelined writes (#9944)
Summary:
Resolves https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9692

This PR adds a unit test that reproduces the race described in https://github.com/facebook/rocksdb/issues/9692 and an according fix.

The unit test does not have any assertions, because I could not find a reliable and save way to assert that the writers list does not form a cycle. So with the old (buggy) code, the test would simply hang, while with the fix the test passes successfully.
