Bugfix for writer not being able to open again after closing (#1599)

* re-applies fixes from #1590 to rolling. Also removes new message definition in sequential writer test for multiple open operations. Also clears topic_names_to_message_definitions_ and handles message_definitions_s underlying container similarly. Lastly, also avoids reset of factory in the compression writer, adds unit test there too.

* removes unused compressor_ member from compresser writer class. Also delegates rest of the closing behavior to the base class in close method, as it is handled in the open and write methods of the compression writer

* Remove unrelated delta

- message_definitions_ was intentionally allocated on the stack and
should persist between writer close() and open() because it represents
cache for message definitions which is not changes.

* Don't call virtual methods from destructors

* Cleanup 'rosbag2_directory_next' after the test run

Signed-off-by: Michael Orlov <michael.orlov@apex.ai>

* Protect Writer::open(..) and Writer::close() with mutex on upper level

- Rationale: To avoid race conditions if open(..) and close() could be
ever be called from different threads.
