fix(cli-repl): only ever run MongoshRepl.onExit once

Previously, a task in our CI was flaky because it was running `exit\n`
as literal input to the shell, expecting it to reliably make the shell exit.

`exit` as a command leads to the `MongoshRepl.onExit` function called,
which then calls a) `.close()` and, indirectly, `repl.close()` on the
Node.js REPL instance as well b) the `CliRepl.exit` function (and through
that, indirectly, `process.exit()`).

However, closing the Node.js REPL instance makes it flush the history
file to disk as a typically fast but asynchronous operation, and,
after that, emit `exit` on the REPL; that in turn called
`MongoshRepl.onExit` again (i.e. calling `MongoshRepl.onExit` leads
to another call to the same function, just asynchronously with
a short delay).

The flaky test in CI failed because of a combination of issues,
including the fact that `process.exit()` did not necessarily actually
exit the process because of coverage tooling interfering with it
(which in turn happened because it was running with an altered
working directory pointing at a temporary directory where `nyc`
had not created a subdirectory for storing coverage output).

In typical operations, the REPL would flush history quickly, and
calling `.onExit()` again would allow the process to exit
normally (by ways of calling `CliRepl.exit` and `process.exit()`
a second time). However, in the flaky failure case, the history
flushing operation would take long enough that the original
`process.exit()` call (which failed due to nyc) would set the
internal `process._exiting` flag before throwing, which in turn
prevents `process.nextTick()` from scheduling callbacks, and which
then ultimately prevented the REPL from cleaning itself up,
leading to the process timing out instead of exiting.

This commit introduces safeguards against calling `.onExit()` twice,
always returning the same (never-resolving) `Promise` instance,
and explicitly keeps track of whether the REPL was closed or not.
