Bug Report: VTCombo does not create VSchema in topo

[brendar]

Overview of the Issue

After starting a keyspace with vtcombo/vttestserver I would expect to be able to get the VSchema for that keyspace, but attempting to do so will result in a node doesn't exist error.

Reproduction Steps

Terminal 1

vttestserver --keyspaces "foo" --num_shards 1

Terminal 2:

vtctldclient --server 127.0.0.1:11151 GetVSchema foo
E0610 13:30:19.281856   86894 main.go:56] rpc error: code = Unknown desc = node doesn't exist: keyspaces/foo/VSchema

Confirmed on main:

❯ make build

❯ vttestserver --keyspaces "foo" --num_shards 1
...
{"bind_address":"localhost","grpc_port":20902,"mysql":20903,"port":20901,"socket":"/opt/vtdataroot/vttest143063516/vt_0000000001/mysql.sock","vtcombo_mysql_port":20904}

❯ vtctldclient --server localhost:20902 GetVSchema foo
E0702 14:30:00.733294   76503 main.go:56] rpc error: code = Unknown desc = node doesn't exist: keyspaces/foo/VSchema

❯ vtctldclient --server localhost:20902 ApplyVSchema --vschema="{}" foo
New VSchema object:
{
  "sharded": false,
  "vindexes": {},
  "tables": {},
  "require_explicit_routing": false,
  "foreign_key_mode": "unspecified",
  "multi_tenant_spec": null
}
If this is not what you expected, check the input data (as JSON parsing will skip unexpected fields).

❯ vtctldclient --server localhost:20902 GetVSchema foo
{
  "sharded": false,
  "vindexes": {},
  "tables": {},
  "require_explicit_routing": false,
  "foreign_key_mode": "unspecified",
  "multi_tenant_spec": null
}
