Update the Windows service handling logic so that the service doesn't transition to the STOPPED state until the beater is terminated. Before this patch, a Beats service would report to be STOPPED as soon as it received the stop request. This causes some problems during service restarts, as the new service would start while the old one was still cleaning up. Fixes elastic#18914 (cherry picked from commit f3ab7c7)

What does this PR do?
Update the Windows service handling logic so that the service doesn't transition to the STOPPED state until the beater is terminated. Right now it transitions just after receiving the stop signal. When restarted, this means that a new Beat process is run while the previous is terminating.
Why is it important?
Since #14069 was merged, now Beats randomly fail restarting under Windows, when run as a service. This isn't caused by the previous PR, but a long standing issue with how the service state is handled.

To reproduce the bug this fixes, you just have to restart a Beats service.
It will fail because the already running service transitions to STOPPED while it still terminating. A new service will be executed while the data dir is still locked by the terminating Beat.
This is easy to reproduce with Winlogbeat with default config, maybe not so easy with other Beats as it depends on how long it takes to terminate the running service.
