[tor-commits] [snowflake/master] Add synchronization to prevent post-melt collects



commit 6baa3c4d5f70fd50223dc41febf67576267d039b
Author: Cecylia Bocovich <cohosh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

    Add synchronization to prevent post-melt collects
    
    This fixes a race condition in which snowflakes.End() is called while
    snowflakes.Collect() is in progress resulting in a write to a closed
    channel. We now wait for all in-progress collections to finish and add
    an extra check before proceeding with a collection.
