block-backend: Fix race when resuming queued requests

When new requests arrive at a BlockBackend that is currently drained,
these requests are queued until the drain section ends.

There is a race window between blk_root_drained_end() waking up a queued
request in an iothread from the main thread and blk_wait_while_drained()
actually being woken up in the iothread and calling blk_inc_in_flight().
If the BlockBackend is drained again during this window, drain won't
wait for this request and it will sneak in when the BlockBackend is
already supposed to be quiesced. This causes assertion failures in
bdrv_drain_all_begin() and can have other unintended consequences.

Fix this by increasing the in_flight counter immediately when scheduling
the request to be resumed so that the next drain will wait for it to
complete.
