Await for upload to complete before returning 201 Created on
`branch_timeline` or when `bootstrap_timeline` happens. Should either of
those waits fail, then on the retried request await for uploads again.
This should work as expected assuming control-plane does not start to
use timeline creation as a wait_for_upload mechanism.

After tenant attach, there is a window where the child timeline is
loaded and accepts GetPage requests, but its parent is not. If a
GetPage request needs to traverse to the parent, it needs to wait for
the parent timeline to become active, or it might miss some records on
the parent timeline.
It's also possible that the parent timeline is active, but it hasn't
yet received all the WAL up to the branch point from the safekeeper.
This happens if a pageserver crashes soon after creating a timeline,
so that the WAL leading to the branch point has not yet been uploaded
to remote storage. After restart, the WAL will be re-streamed and
ingested from the safekeeper, but that takes a while. Because of that,
it's not enough to check that the parent timeline is active, we also
need to wait for the WAL to arrive on the parent timeline, just like
at the beginning of GetPage handling. We probably should change the
behavior at create_timeline so that a timeline can only be created
after all the WAL up to the branch point has been uploaded to remote
storage, but that's not currently the case and out of scope for this
PR (see github issue #4218).
@NanoBjorn encountered this while working on tenant migration. After
migrating a tenant with a parent and child branch, connecting to the
child branch failed with an error like:
```
FATAL: "base/16385" is not a valid data directory
DETAIL: File "base/16385/PG_VERSION" is missing.
```
This commit adds two tests that reproduce the bug, with slightly
different symptoms.
Before this PR, the gather_inputs() calls made to imitate synthetic size
calculation accesses were accounted towards the real logical size
calculation metric.
This PR forces all callers to declare the cause for making logical size
calculations, making the decision which cause counts towards which
metric explicit.
This is follow-up to

logical size calculation metrics: differentiate regular vs imitated (#4197)
```
After merging this patch, I hope to be able to explain why we have ca
30x more "logical size" ops in prod than "imitate logical size" for any
given observation interval.
