Batched catalog writers can run concurrently with HistoricalCatalogIdTracker::cleanup() and lead to incorrect PIT find results.

      This comment here is incorrect. Timestamp monitor doesn't take global lock while callbacks are executed. This means we can have concurrent batched catalog writers during HistoricalCatalogIdTracker::cleanup() and can result in below bugs- 1) server crash due to this invariant failure 2) more serious data inconsistency bug - Find command returning incorrect results when the sequence is as follows:

      1) HistoricalCatalogIdTracker::cleanup() makes a copy of _nss
      2) HistoricalCatalogIdTracker::Create() updates _nss with new catalog id info
      3) HistoricalCatalogIdTracker::cleanup updates the persistent copy.
