The major and obivous mistake I committed myself with [JDK-8361752](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8361752) in `CompileQueue::delete_all`: the code first `delete`-s, then asks for `next` (facepalms).

Current code skip deletions only when compiler is shutdown for compilation, but I think the condition should be stronger: unless the task is completed, we should assume it might carry the queue-ing `next`/`prev` pointers that `delete_all` would need, and skip deletion. Realistically, it would "leak" only on compiler shutdown, like before.

Re-approved.  Please wait GHA testing to finish before integration.
