pg_prewarm bgworker could break fast shutdown

Hello,

I the fast shutdown was initiated before pg_prewarm managed to load
buffers from the dump (and start the main loop), the pg_prewarm
bgworker process never exits on SIGTERM and effectively preventing the
clean shutdown of the cluster.

This problem bite me a few times, but yesterday I managed to attach to
the pg_prewarm process and got a stacktrace:

It has happened on 11.9, but after looking at HEAD I think the problem
still exists.
