Watcher remove assertion that is susceptible to a race condition #47630

When deactivating a watch, there is a chance that it is fully deactivated
and reporting as not running but the history is not fully written yet.
There is not a tight coupling between the associated watcher history
index and the deactivation. This test assumes that once a watch is
deactivated that all history is fully written in a very short time period.
If the Watch is deactivated, but the history is slow to write it can result
in a failing test.

This change removes an assertion that assumes that the deactivation of a watch
ensured the all of the watch history was written. There is still a minor race
condition with respect to the remaining history assertions. However, if the
history is slow to be written, it will allow the test to still passing.

fixes #47503
