[0/1] upload-pack: fix race condition in t5516

Message

This patch fixes a strange race condition that was hitting our PR builds on
microsoft/git rather frequently. See [1] for an example.

It was only happening on the MSVC builds, so somehow that compiler/platform
combination was leading to this race condition happening more often than
other platforms. See the commit message for the race condition.

The thing I am worried about is that I replaced a die() statement with an
error() and exit() pair. Is that OK? Or is there a preferred option?

Thanks, -Stolee
