remotefilelog: reduce probability of race-condition in remotefilelog tests
ca1014ad3de4 introduced a new parameter `ensurestart` to speed up
remotefilelog background processes start. Unfortunately it seems to have
increased the possibility of race-conditions in remotefilelog tests testing
those background processes.
With `ensurestart=False`, it seems that it's more probable to enter in a race
condition with `debugwaitonprefetch` and `debugwaitonrepack` in remotefilelog
background tests. Our CI seems to have a high probability of triggering this
race condition so make it configurable to ensure tests are stable.

The largefile is not created in .hg/largefiles:
$ ls .hg/largefiles
dirstate
The user cache is not even created:
>>> import os; os.path.exists("$HOME/.cache/largefiles/")
False
Make the commit with space on the device:
$ hg commit -m big
Now make a clone with a full disk, and make sure lfutil.link function
makes copies instead of hardlinks:
$ cd ..
$ hg --config extensions.criple=$TESTTMP/criple.py clone --pull alice bob
