test-run-tests: stabilize the test (issue5735) Previously there is a race condition because things happen in this order: 1. Check shouldStop 2. If shouldStop is false, print the diff 3. Call fail() -> set shouldStop The check and set should really happen in a same critical section. This patch adds a lock to address the issue. Test Plan: Run `run-tests.py -l test-run-tests.t` 20 times on gcc112 and the race condition does not reproduce. Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D1830
