Investigate changes in SERVER-44029: Remove global X lock for replSetResizeOplog

      Description

      Downstream Change Summary

      The 'replSetResizeOplog' command does not take a global write lock anymore. It now uses an exclusive collection lock on the oplog collection.

      Description of Linked Ticket

      Remove global X lock acquisition for replSetResizeOplog. This is because acquiring global lock in X mode can be blocked by prepared transactions. The enqueued global X lock can block oplog queries which need the global IS lock. If these oplog queries and the data replication are needed to satisfy the prepared transaction's write concern, then the prepare transaction and replication cannot make progress. Thus a deadlock occurs.

      Alternatively, if removing global X lock is not an option, deprecate the command or make sure it won't be blocked on prepare transactions.
