Description

Influx Version 1.7.9

I think related to https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/issues/10263 and https://github.com/influxdata/influxdb/issues/10052, when I issue a:
```drop measurement funding_rate_1h;```
...the measurement dissappears as expected.

But when stopping and restarting influx, it inexplicably returns.

I hope you guys can manage to find this one, it's really annoying!

Research direction

Reproduce the issue on InfluxDB 1.7.9 by creating or locating the funding_rate_1h measurement, issuing DROP MEASUREMENT funding_rate_1h, and restarting the server. Trace the measurement persistence and restart recovery paths to determine why the dropped measurement returns; done means it remains absent after restart and regression coverage verifies that behavior.
