Improve registry file migration performance (#20717)

## What does this PR do?

Ensure that fsync is called only once after the migration of old state entries is complete.

## Why is it important?

The registry uses a checkpoint-predicate that when true writes all state to
disk and calls fsync. The checkpoint operation is supposed to be disabled
when migration the old registry file.
During migration, the old state will be directly copied (after cleanup
and schema changes are applied). The old state will only be deleted
after the migration of all states is complete.

Unfortunately, the checkpoint predicate did return true, instead of
false, which did trigger a checkpoint operation per state to be
migrated. The fix disables fsync, and now finalizes the migration by
calling Checkpoint directly.

The PR also provides a benchmark (each "op" is one migration attempt). Before this fix (go test did kill the run after 10min for 10k entries):

```
BenchmarkMigration0To1/1-32  	             286	   4203353 ns/op
BenchmarkMigration0To1/10-32 	              34	  35730680 ns/op
BenchmarkMigration0To1/100-32         	       2	 720890839 ns/op
BenchmarkMigration0To1/1000-32        	       1	31633569085 ns/op
... test timed out after 10min
```

Benchmark results with the fix (migration 100k entries took ~7.6s):

```
BenchmarkMigration0To1/1-32  	             274	   4371400 ns/op
BenchmarkMigration0To1/10-32 	             259	   4639209 ns/op
BenchmarkMigration0To1/100-32         	     100	  13374147 ns/op
BenchmarkMigration0To1/1000-32        	      13	 104220944 ns/op
BenchmarkMigration0To1/10000-32       	       2	 916656798 ns/op
BenchmarkMigration0To1/100000-32      	       1	7616648790 ns/op
PASS
```
