This change ensures that all messages from the worker are received by the main process before the worker exits. It solves issues on Windows that are occurring with Node.js v20 and later when `workerThreads: false` is set in the AVA configuration. Fixes: avajs#3390

Whether the worker exits depends on whether user code is keeping the event loop busy. 'Freed' is a better term.
