1817291 - Write a shutdown profiling test to make sure it's succesful without any leaks

Status: NEW

Description

[Nazım Can Altınova [:canova][:canaltinova on phabricator]]

Currently we don't have any shutdown profiling test in our test suite and it makes it harder to catch regressions. For example Bug 1699681 fixes a shutdown profiling leak. We should add a test to at least make sure that the shutdown happens succesfully without and leak or errors. Like Florian mentioned in his message here, we can add a simple test in a new directory with shutdown profiling environment variable set (or maybe we don't even need this, but we need to test it manually to decide).

Or maybe we actually want to test both cases :-).
