Fixed (some?) test failures

> Manifests at least with AsyncFsWriter.
> There's a window after LogRoller replaces the writer in the WAL, but before
> it sets the rollLog boolean to false in the finally, where the WAL class can
> request another log roll (it can happen in particular when the logs are
> getting archived in the LogRoller thread, and there's high write volume
> causing the logs to roll quickly).
> LogRoller will blindly reset the rollLog flag in finally and "forget" about
> this request.
> AsyncWAL in turn never requests it again because its own rollRequested field
> is set and it expects a callback. Logs don't get rolled until a periodic roll
> is triggered after that.
> The acknowledgment of roll requests by LogRoller should be atomic.
