Merge #37168

37168: server: ensure first node status written within Server.Start() r=darinpp a=darinpp

The fix ensures that the status of the first node is written before
the end of `Server.Start`. Currently this is deferred
and sometimes the code doesn't execute by the time the tests start
running. For the rest of the nodes, the status is written as part of
the node bootstrap.

Fixes #33559, FIxes #36990.

Release note: None
