Don't enter parallel mode when holding interrupts.

Doing so caused the leader to hang in wait_event=ParallelFinish, which required an immediate shutdown to resolve. Back-patch to v12 (all supported versions). Francesco Degrassi Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/CAC-SaSzHUKT=vZJ8MPxYdC_URPfax+yoA1hKTcF4ROz_Q6z0_Q@mail.gmail.com
