Reorder steps in ConditionVariablePrepareToSleep for more safety.

Browse Source 
In the admittedly-very-unlikely case that AddWaitEventToSet fails,
ConditionVariablePrepareToSleep would error out after already having
set cv_sleep_target, which is probably bad, and after having already
set cv_wait_event_set, which is very bad.  Transaction abort might or
might not clean up cv_sleep_target properly; but there is nothing
that would be aware that the WaitEventSet wasn't fully constructed,
so that all future condition variable sleeps would be broken.
We can easily guard against these hazards with slight restructuring.

Back-patch to v10 where condition_variable.c was introduced.
