…itorStream`/`monitorConsumer` (#6153) When stopping a stream or consumer, we would attempt to install a snapshot. However, this would race with what's happening in `monitorStream`/`monitorConsumer` at that time. For example: 1. In `applyStreamEntries` we call into `mset.processJetStreamMsg` to persist one or multiple messages. 2. We call `mset.stop(..)` either before or during the above. 3. In `mset.stop(..)` we'd wait for `mset.processJetStreamMsg` to release the lock so we can enter `mset.stateSnapshotLocked()`. **We create a snapshot with new state here!** 4. Now we call into `InstallSnapshot` to persist above snapshot, but `n.applied` does not contain the right value, the value will be lower. 5. Then `applyStreamEntries` finishes and we end with calling `n.Applied(..)`. This would be a race condition depending on if 4 happened before or after 5. It's essential that the snapshot we make is aligned with the `n.applied` value. If we don't that means we'll replay and need to increase `mset.clfs` which will snowball into stream desync due to this shift. The only place where we can guarantee that the snapshot and applied are aligned is in `doSnapshot` of `monitorStream` and `monitorConsumer` (and `monitorCluster`), so we must not attempt installing snapshots outside of those.

Since the race condition of installing snapshots during shutdown was fixed in #6153, we have not re-introduced this snapshotting but done in the right place. (Meta already has this) Signed-off-by: Maurice van Veen <github@mauricevanveen.com>
