Public bug reported:

[Impact]
test-pdiff-usage is somewhat flaky, especially on Debian, this makes it less 
flaky. No end user impact as it's a test-only change.

[Test plan]
Running autopkgtest, which runs our extensive integration test suite which 
includes the changed test.

[Where problems could occur]
No end user regression potential on its own, but might slightly change 
regression potential for future pdiff changes:

Test approach is slightly different now. It still catches that updates
fail correctly, but tests more concretely that a transaction was aborted
rather than that no worker received work (which was not guaranteed, the
work could be scheduled before it was aborted).
