s3:registry: fix seqnum race in regdb_fetch_keys_internal
This prevents race between fetching seqnum and key content. Because there is currently no way to atomically fetch the record along with the seqnum, I use a loop. This is far from optimal and should should ideally be done differently. But for now it fixes the race. Signed-off-by: Andreas Schneider <asn@samba.org>
