Most jobs do the same thing when they leave their running loop:
- Store the return code in a structure
- wait to receive this structure in the main thread
- signal job completion via job_completed
More seriously, when we utilize job_defer_to_main_loop_bh to call
a function that calls job_completed, job_finalize_single will run
in a context where it has recursively taken the aio_context lock,
which can cause hangs if it puts down a reference that causes a flush.
The job infrastructure is perfectly capable of registering job
completion itself when we leave the job's entry point. In this
context, we can signal job completion from outside of the aio_context,
which should allow for job cleanup code to run with only one lock.
