Do not prepare expect and other things outside test_expect_success.
If such code fails for some reason, we won't necessarily hear about

When compacting tables, it may happen that we want to compact a set of
tables which are already locked by a concurrent process that compacts
them. In the case where we wanted to perform a full compaction of all
tables it is sensible to bail out in this case, as we cannot fulfill the
requested action.
But when performing auto-compaction it isn't necessarily in our best
interest of us to abort the whole operation. For example, due to the
geometric compacting schema that we use, it may be that process A takes
a lot of time to compact the bulk of all tables whereas process B
appends a bunch of new tables to the stack. B would in this case also
notice that it has to compact the tables that process A is compacting
already and thus also try to compact the same range, probably including
the new tables it has appended. But because those tables are locked
already, it will fail and thus abort the complete auto-compaction. The
consequence is that the stack will grow longer and longer while A isn't
yet done with compaction, which will lead to a growing performance
impact.
Instead of aborting auto-compaction altogether, let's gracefully handle
this situation by instead compacting tables which aren't locked. To do
so, instead of locking from the beginning of the slice-to-be-compacted,
we start locking tables from the end of the slice. Once we hit the first
table that is locked already, we abort. If we succeeded to lock two or
more tables, then we simply reduce the slice of tables that we're about
to compact to those which we managed to lock.
This ensures that we can at least make some progress for compaction in
said scenario. It also helps in other scenarios, like for example when a
process died and left a stale lockfile behind. In such a case we can at
least ensure some compaction on a best-effort basis.

The locking employed by compaction uses the following schema:
1. Lock "tables.list" and verify that it matches the version we have
loaded in core.
2. Lock each of the tables in the user-supplied range of tables that
we are supposed to compact. These locks prohibit any concurrent
process to compact those tables while we are doing that.
3. Unlock "tables.list". This enables concurrent processes to add new
tables to the stack, but also allows them to compact tables outside
of the range of tables that we have locked.
4. Perform the compaction.
5. Lock "tables.list" again.
6. Move the compacted table into place.
7. Write the new order of tables, including the compacted table, into
the lockfile.
8. Commit the lockfile into place.
Letting concurrent processes modify the "tables.list" file while we are
doing the compaction is very much part of the design and thus expected.
After all, it may take some time to compact tables in the case where we
are compacting a lot of very large tables.
But there is a bug in the code. Suppose we have two processes which are
compacting two slices of the table. Given that we lock each of the
tables before compacting them, we know that the slices must be disjunct
from each other. But regardless of that, compaction performed by one
process will always impact what the other process needs to write to the
"tables.list" file.
Right now, we do not check whether the "tables.list" has been changed
after we have locked it for the second time in (5). This has the
consequence that we will always commit the old, cached in-core tables to
disk without paying to respect what the other process has written. This
scenario would then lead to data loss and corruption.
This can even happen in the simpler case of one compacting process and
one writing process. The newly-appended table by the writing process
would get discarded by the compacting process because it never sees the
new table.
Fix this bug by re-checking whether our stack is still up to date after
locking for the second time. If it isn't, then we adjust the indices of
tables to replace in the updated stack.

When modifying "tables.list", we need to lock the list before updating
it to ensure that no concurrent writers modify the list at the same
point in time. While we do this via the `lock_file` subsystem when
compacting the stack, we manually handle the lock when adding a new
table to it. While not wrong, it is at least inconsistent.
Refactor the code to consistently lock "tables.list" via the `lock_file`
subsytem.
