Yep, the biggest piece of this is that the component_lock_ is dropped while 
running compaction selection policy.

T1: makes copy {A,B} and drops component_lock_
T2: makes copy {A,B} and drops component_lock_

T1: considers {A,B}, and selects them for compaction, taking their 
compact_flush_lock_
T1: finishes compaction, removes rowsets from tree, drops {A,B}'s 
compact_flush_lock_

T2: considers {A,B}, and selects them for compaction, taking their 
compact_flush_lock_
T2: can't proceed because it can't find them in {A,B} in the rowset tree

PS3, Line 24: T2:   snapshots the rowset tree (which still contains {A, B})

I'm not super convinced (a) would be able to avoid the race without holding the 
component lock while selecting, so I'm going with (b).
