I think calling os.Exit at arbitrary points is _bad_ and is good to
delete. I think panics in the case of data courruption have a chance
of providing useful information.
This change fixes a potential exploitable vulnerability
that can cause the WAL to be consistently truncated by falsely
supplying the WAL path which would be any arbitrary dirrectory.
Fixes#6427
#5852 fixed an issue with error propagation in `os.EnsureDir()`. However, this function is basically identical to `os.MkdirAll()`, and can be replaced entirely with a call to it. We keep the function for backwards compatibility.
