Summary:
Atomic white box test's kill odd is the same as normal test. However, in the scenario that only WritableFileWriter::Append() is blacklisted, WritableFileWriter::Flush() dominates the killing odds. Normally, most of WritableFileWriter::Flush() are called in WAL writes, where every write triggers a WAL flush. In atomic test, WAL is disabled, so the kill happens less frequently than we antipated. In some rare cases, the kill didn't end up with happening (for reasons I still don't fully understand) and cause the stress test timeout.

If WAL is disabled, make the odds 5x likely to trigger.

Test Plan: Run whitebox_crash_test_with_atomic_flush and whitebox_crash_test and observe the kill odds printed out.
