This PR hardens the scheduler implementation by ensuring that no subnet messages are executed on a canister aborted in install code. This prevents out-of-order subnet message execution since, e.g., a
canister_statusenqueued afterinstall_codecould return beforeinstall_codeifcanister_statusquickly completes while the canister is aborted processinginstall_code. Currently, out-of-order subnet message execution is not possible because there could only be a single aborted install code execution and it is resumed (inadvance_long_running_install_code) before other subnet messages are executed (indrain_subnet_queues), but relying on that assumption is quite fragile.The new test from this PR would fail if the code from this PR hardening the scheduler is omitted and
drain_subnet_queuesis executed beforeadvance_long_running_install_code:
