If the resource code is recursing, it’s possible for one iteration to
set a partial flag, and then a recursive iteration to set a pending flag
(or vice-versa). It doesn’t make sense to have both set at the same time
for a specific instance, so make sure to clear the other flag when
setting one of them.

Add some assertions to make this invariant clearer and easier to debug
if it fails.
