Fix yet another race condition in recovery/t/001_stream_rep.pl.
In commit 5c77690f, we added polling in front of most of the get_slot_xmins calls in 001_stream_rep.pl, but today's results from buildfarm member nightjar show that at least one more poll loop is needed. Proactively add a poll loop before the next-to-last get_slot_xmins call as well. It may be that there is no race condition there because the standby_2 server is shut down at that point, but I'm quite tired of fighting with this test script. The empirical evidence that it's safe, from the buildfarm, is no stronger than the evidence for the other call that nightjar just proved unsafe. The only remaining get_slot_xmins calls without wait_slot_xmins protection are the first two, which should be OK since nothing has happened at that point. It's tempting to ignore that special case and merge get_slot_xmins and wait_slot_xmins into a single function. I didn't go that far though.
