Fix race in tidy status with cert counting (#18899)

* Read total cert counts with atomic.LoadUint32(...)

When generating the tidy status, we read the values of two backend
atomics, b.certCount and b.revokedCertCount, without using the atomic
load operation. This resulted in a data race when the status was read
at the same time as an on-going tidy operation:

In particular, because the tidy status was directly reading the uint
value without resorting to the atomic side, the JSON serialization could
race with a later atomic update.

* Also use atomic load in tests

Because no tidy operation is running here, it should be safe to read the
pointed value directly, but use the safer atomic.Load for consistency.
