      As `closeAll` iterates and closes each individual database, it checks that the database has no background operations. If that check fails, a uassert is thrown. That uassert reaching the user implies the database is left in a state that is partially closed. In particular the databases returned by `StorageEngine::listDatabases` may not exist in a call to `DatabaseHolder::get`.

      Suggested fix: Move the `BackgroundOperation::assertNoBgOpInProgForDb` call to the previous scan that grabs the database names to close. I.e: assert the complete precondition before taking any actions.
